OK, back again and not trying to open a can of worms, but...Is the extra $2000 for a full system over slipons really worth it?
I do not plan to spend any time at the track.
After having been in an accident and months of fighting with the insurance company, they have finally agreed to repaired the bike. By making a few changes to the parts listed in the estimate, I am left with the choice of installing a full Akrapovic system OR I could go slipons and a few extra goodies...Is it worth the extra money?
If I go with the full system ($3478), I would not have enough left over to take care of the ECU and tuning so that would have to come out of pocket.
If I go with the slipons ($1211), I can put that $2267 towards a microtec ECU and dyno tune and get a few other things as well.
Without this sudden inflow of cash for repair I would never consider paying that much for an exhaust system, but now.......
If I'm not going to the track, is it worth it other than cool points for a full system? Any other bike I would go full system all the way...but any other bike the full system is the same price as my slipon option for the Duc.
