Quill T3 can
|
After my incident with the deer, I was left with a dented can. Looking
to pick up something to replace it with on ebay and came across item
130125029749 (Quill T3).
A quick look suggests that there is no rejetting or other tweaking
required - is there anything else I should be considering?
For those who are familiar with Quill T3, the web site shows a number of
different finishes:
The ebay item is described as "annodised titanium" - I think this won't
look good on a dark green Sprint, what think those with some taste?

I have a Quill T3 on my Bandit 1200. It seems to be fine, sounds
better than the stock can and gives it a bit more oomph.
Aesthetically, it'll be behind you, so it doesn't matter...

Anyone know what this means, from the Quill website?
"Gas mass flow rates through the exhaust change as a direct function of
the engine speed, so the functional characteristics of the silencer are
determined by the rpm of the engine. At lower engine speeds, the T3 is
designed to function as a 'combination' (reactive/absorptive) silencer.
At higher rpm (higher gas mass flow rates), pressure build-up in the
rear chamber shortens and straightens the apparent gas path. This
promotes optimum engine breathing. In practical terms this typically
means that from upwards of 4000-5000 rpm* the silencer will perform in a
similar manner to a straight-through race pipe."

I've got an annodised titanium one on my blue ZX9R, it looks lush and
|
heh. "lush". You're such a carrot-cruncher.

Your powers are weak, old man. You won't get me that easily.

sounds great. Although I still haven't put it back on since the MOT.
On a green bike, I'm not convinced.
