GPR Pipes?

[Sgt_H]

I thought that I'd be nice and call those instructions lol.  I figured  everything out except these




I got excited when the box came


Everything looked good and came well packaged


I looked in the end and thought, ohhh, that must be loud


First thing was to put the rubber on the bracket.  They weren't all the same length, so I tried cutting them as even as I could


Then I figured out what the instructions were talking about when it mentions the 'aluminum thickness'.  That's these things


You have to take the peg brackets off and install the spacers like this


Then there's little foam deals with yellow backings that go inside the frame hangers


It took me a second to figure out the way the hangers went but they bend "backwards"


They do stick out too far, but they sound sooooo good.  As soon as I figure out how/where to post videos I will.  These sound in-freakin-credible.  It took me two seconds to decide that these are worth every dime, probably more.


I do have two problems with the install.  Well three counting the rubber sections that I didn't use.  First, with the spacer in, the bolt that used to secure the ground isn't long enough so I need to figure out another way to connect it.


The other problem is that the pipe touches the peg bracket on the left side.  Probably not a big deal.


Overall, the istall was straight forward and pretty simple.  Took me probably 2.5 hours going slow and taking pictures.  I can't stress how good these sound.  There is a real bass rumble to them that I didn't know this bike was capable of.  It sounds GREAT.  If you don't have a system already, go buy these now.  They are that good.  BTW, I bought the Stainless Round Hi Mounts

Here's the vid.  I looooooove these.  Love them!

I got the oval titanium low mounts about a month ago, and I love em! Mine didn't come with instructions, but I just used the pics from the GPR website to do the install.

Fit and finish are great, and, as expected, it's quite a weight savings compared to stock. They're LOUD (in a good way) above 6 or 7k rpm, so now I wear earplugs. I didn't know anything about GPR before coming across the deal on oncycles.com, but a deal like this is hard to pass up. Just from browsing through their site, I got the sense that they know what they're doing and sponsor quite a few pros, but they just happen to be a pretty small company; I guess not everyone can be as large as Termi or Arrow. If money wasn't an issue, I'm sure I would've just gone and gotten Termi's, but this was just too good of a deal!

Agreed!  My video really doesn't do them justice, but I still think that they sound at least as good, probably better than the big name exhausts.

anyone here that has them on an s2r800?

Very nice sound. There is a vid on youtube with those on a 996 that sound incredible. Nice job

I bought the low mount CF round slip-ons from oncycles in mid-March and was surprised by the fit and finish of these pipes.  Mine didn't come with any instructions and it took me all of an hour to install them.  I had no problems at all (except for the rubber on the pipe hangers).

I had CF low mount oval pipes that were a Remus/Termi racing collaboration that sounded incredible.  These pipes sound even better.  They are quite loud, but in a good way.  Well worth the money. I didn't like the badges on the pipes, so I pulled them off before I installed them.

I just picked up an '05 S2R 800 and the previous owner had just installed the full Ti GPR system.  I think it sounds awesome.  I took the bike over to a friends place who is a Harley guy and he was very impressed w/ the sound of the GPR's.  I'll try to shoot some pics this week and post.  They don't seem to sit just right and look nice w/ the rest of the bike.

I got a set of stainless round low mounts deliverd yesterday, just getting them on now. 
They look great, very nice quality - no instructions at all. But it seems pretty straightforward, I'm not sure what those 4 black rubber tubes are for though?

Any issues fitting these to a 96 Monster?  The page lists it as an 01-03 or something.....

Oncycles HAd different listings for different years/models, but I'm not sure what's left. I ordered what I thought were the right highmounts for my '02 620. When they came in, they were wrong. I called, and found out that the set I ordered went to '03+ 600-750. When I asked the girl if I could exchange 'em, she told me "No, you could put them on ebay." I put them on my bike anyway. they fit acceptably.
It would be a really good idea to call your order in, and make sure they're the right ones.


I can't figure out what the little rubber tubes are for either.

Jeff

the best me and elTristo fig'd out was that they might be sleeves for the springs...

don't recall if we used them or not.

they are sleves for the springs that hold the pipes in place

That was a good purchase, thanks DMF for the link.  I'm glad I didn't pass it up @ $280 shipped because it looks like the round stainless low mounts are sold out now too. I think the stainless lows look great on my red 620, it's a really nice brushed stainless finish that balances perfectly with the finish of the forks. Even the red in the decals matches. And they sound really sweet too, a nice low bass rumble at idle that just rips when rev'd, about equal in volume to the stock cored pipes I had but meaner and bassier.

I picked up a pair of the high-mount stailess rounds and they fit relatively well. 


The rubber sleeves are for the springs.
