varo Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 After a couple months of research I decided on the Firetong Exhaust from Brazil. After having a hard time buying the exhaust direct from the manufacturer due to Brazils laws and taxing, I found a seller on ebay. Streetpower_com_br He was amazingly helpful. Let me tell you this guys went back and forth with me for a period of 3 weeks of question etc. He was selling a similar exhaust from brazil which is called CS Racing. He contacted the Firetong people for me and setup the whole transaction through ebay for me to make it simple. The Exhaust cost me $550 shipped with tracking. It arrived in 6 business days (after the 3 days wait to actually make the exhaust). Yesterday I installed the exhaust. Mind you I was on my own having never done this before, it took 35 minutes (20 minutes of that was trying to get the header seated correctly). After struggling with the header I decided to take a 2 minute break and re-group. After that break I managed to get everything seated correctly the first try (all about lining up the flanges first). The exhaust looks and sound amazing. It was a perfect fit. The sound is phenomenal. I havent removed the db killer yet being that the exhaust is loud as is. I am super satisfied with the exhaust. Went for a 90 mile ride afterwards! It also comes with a plastic cover to hide the connections from the header and the can but I like it raw as is 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dentalprodigy Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Very nice. You should post a sound clip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmwpowere36m3 Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Post up a vid. Not a fan personally and for the price, but might sound interesting. I do like the shorty tip though vs. having the muffler hang out the side of the swingarm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
varo Posted May 1, 2016 Author Share Posted May 1, 2016 Yes, It comes with a plastic cover that hides the connection point and the can with a hole for the tip to peek through. I didnt put it on because I was too excited to ride lol Ill post sound clip and photo with cover on after the next ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global Moderator Guru Posted May 2, 2016 Global Moderator Share Posted May 2, 2016 With shroud.... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member avanti Posted May 2, 2016 Premium Member Share Posted May 2, 2016 Interesting. Is it all stainless? Weight? Reprogramming necessary? I would certainly like to hear it; I'm not a fan of loud, per se nor a "sharp" braaaap, but do like to be able to hear it. I think it would be intriguing to make my own aluminum cover and have it anodized to match my custom-fabbed boot-guards and side covers. I could see the new cover better following the circlular opening, for a start while eliminating the little side-ways "V"s. Thanks, in advance. p.s. just found this video clip with sound. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beemer Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 My first impression of it was did they use an empty pony keg and then I saw a picture of the shroud to help hide it and I thought, "No wonder the shroud, even they know it's ugly!" but then I listened to it (sounded good) which made up for some of it's bulky, ugliness but it still bothers me that extra weight in the form of a shroud that looks odd itself would have to be used. 3 stars.

Premium Member avanti Posted May 2, 2016 Premium Member Share Posted May 2, 2016 Beemer, the plastic shroud cannot add but ounces; what, maybe half-a-pound at most? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2wheeldynoworks Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 i'd love to get it on the dyno and see what it'll do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
varo Posted May 3, 2016 Author Share Posted May 3, 2016 Updated pics and quick video down my dead end. I just mocked up the cover. I like it better without. Personal preference. Nothing but compliments from all my riding buddies except one with a FZ-09 lol He doesnt like the growl. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member avanti Posted May 4, 2016 Premium Member Share Posted May 4, 2016 I don't mind the look (covered) nor the sound, from the clip I posted, and I'm no fan of LOUD (I just added two MORE resonators, for a total of 6 "mufflers" to an LS3 crate-engine install I just finished). But, this seems okay to me, at least online. I appreciate the post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwti725 Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 So almost a year later, what's your input on getting the exhaust? I LOVE the look and sound, but don't know anything about it. What say you on getting it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pierre Micallef Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Help needed....I have a 2020 MT07 and recently installed a Firetong exhaust system. This is backfiring heavily and also has become a fuel guzzler since I installed it....I love it's look and sound but am at a dilemma what to do.... Anything can be done to reduce backfire and possibly improve fuel consumption? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rider360 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 I think it looks like something you would see on a race bike. Bad Arse! Leave the cover off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
