Hi guys,


just finished my first prototype can for the 05 S3. Its still under development so wont be available until the new year.

Please take a look and give me some feedback.

http://www.mototwin.com/bonnieworld.php?id=479

I was trying to make a short can that fits the style of the bike, I think the small cans are more in keeping with the proportions of the seat.

What do you think? what do you want?


Regards

Very sharp bonnietastic!

It would be handy to have more pictures. As far as aesthetics go, They look like the best replacement to OE cans I have seen for this bike.

Hi there,


Thanks for your comments, I'll put more pics up when we have the fittings finalised. Next stop dyno testing.

Nice work. If priced similarly, a very attractive option to the triumph units.

I wouldn't call those pipes 'custom'; they look like ***** IMHO.

Ya, I saw those on ebay... pathetic. If I happened to see an S3 with those I'd have to smack the owner...
