Hi folks

I am the proud owner of a two week old black S3 triple. Was thinking of getting a nice commuter friendly Sprint but made the mistake of testing the S3. 20 mins later I had the throttle wrenched open, was screaming my head off and mentally writing a cheque (er, that's a check for all folks over the pond).

Anyhow, I love it but the only thing is that the street cans are just ab it too well behaved. A friend of a friend has a pair of Triumph's S3 track cans that he'll sell to me cheaply....but does anyone think it's worth it, or should I stick my hand in my pocket for something else that'll really annoy my neighbours?

Hey lgscoot, if you can get the TOR cans cheap, go for it! They're great! Sound good and add some performance! Btw, welcome! :-D

A second vote for the TORS. I bought them because I like the stock look. As noted, they sound good and add a little performance, too.

I like my Wolf carbon cans. Sound better but not too loud.
Save weight. Doesn't need a new map but I am going to
get a TuneBoy anyway just to get the best out of the
motor.

I love my Arrow titanium cans. They are WAY lighter than the stock cans and only marginally louder with the baffles left in. However, once you remove the baffles, hold on sweet jesus!!!!! The bike is loud and very deep when accelerating in the midrange; the bike it sounds most similar to is a piped Ducati 996/8.

I was thinking about the Jardine carbon cans. Anyone have them?? If so what do you think?? It sounds like the TORs are getting rave reviews. Now I am not sure. I was also thinking of the single Eagle like what cheapbastard has.

All these choices and don't know what to choose :???:

I love the Jardines. I have the stainless ones, but I am sure they sound the same. I am a big F1 fan and the sound just rocks!

You'll love 'em!
