New Comp Werkes Exhaust

ducatialliance · July 30th, 2012, 06:56 AM

Hey Guys I was at Laguna Seca for MotoGP and stopped by the comp werkes booth.. The rep said they should be on said by the end of next month. $1700.00 Dollar range from what he was telling me.

Wow that is the most uninspiring exhaust I have ever seen. How could they put such an old fashion look on a high tech Italian bike. For me, the wait continues..

ducatialliance · July 30th, 2012, 08:39 AM

I agree I wasn't too impressed

akdave8 · July 30th, 2012, 08:59 AM

I agree, this exhaust does look pretty lame, no styling what so ever. thanks op for letting us know.

MadeinItaly · July 30th, 2012, 09:25 AM

Remus (which I loved on my Diavel and sounded killer) is working on an exhaust.

ttkarp · July 30th, 2012, 09:45 AM

Why would anyone spend the money on a Panigale and put a budget exhaust on it? I wouldn't even put that on my Honda.

Doesn't do any justice to the incredible lines of the bike. I really don't like it

jonesdx · July 30th, 2012, 11:24 AM

Did the op get any shots of their tail tidy?

Also I agree that the exhaust does not look right on the bike and I have never really liked their exhausts. In the grand scheme of things I don't consider 1700 a budget exhaust and hp wise there is usually not that big of a difference in numbers.

Did they say anything on the performance increase? I would expect the compromise on style would result from a significant improvement on performance . They could have also cleaned up the look by having a panel that blends with the lines of the bike and hides the muffler similar to the Taylormade exhausts.

It doesn't go with the bike !! Ugly !! Next

Hamish · July 30th, 2012, 02:27 PM

Agreed, way to make a great bike look ugly

flobrandx · July 30th, 2012, 03:28 PM

Eewww Damn! Looks like it came off a tractor. Please take it back off. For $1700 that's the best they could do?

efna · July 30th, 2012, 03:34 PM

I think MadeinItaly put it best. Uninspired. I think they need to stick to designing exhausts for uninspiring bikes from Japan if that is the best they can do.

ducatialliance · July 30th, 2012, 03:55 PM

he couldnt really give me any performance figures just said it would be out in a month or so. I wasnt digging it at all though.. If you didnt notice the other side its just an exhaust muffler.. There is no outlet so it just wraps around and sits there and the exhaust just comes out that one side.. Im not sure how or if that would affect the performance of the exhaust but it looked stupid either way.. Kinda like how the Bmw has two totally different front headlights

asainslie · July 30th, 2012, 05:05 PM

Thats not going near my bike.

Phil · July 30th, 2012, 05:12 PM

well, if they only have one exit, they might have more header length. advantageous for torque ...
now they just have to make it look good...

True most of us care about the looks of our bikes !

Exige · July 30th, 2012, 11:07 PM

I don't understand why they can't come up with better designs. That pipe in the OP looks as thought the original designer was just plain lazy.

Any clues on the Akra pipes for the Panigale?

Delta One · July 31st, 2012, 12:02 AM

Thanks op for letting us know , but agree with the above posters, a big "No Thank you" from me! and 1700 US!! pfff what the hell are they smoking or drinking at Comp Werkes!!
