No. Not on an ST2. JHP don't do one for example.

Mine ran like a bag of spanners. I did loads of hunting and no one made any chips for a standard ST2, there were only a few for ones with funny exhausts as well.

now for the silly questions
are there any road legal performance pipes
does any body make performance pipes with removable innards for the st2
what are the quietest performance pipes
how much are pipes and a chip

that'll do for now...
i'll think of more daft questions later
:frog:

To be quite honest Glyn, most pipe and chip options make very little difference to "performance" apart from added noise. The noise itself can convince you that the bikes making more power and going faster.
I would suggest that most people swap cans just for more noise.

Now fancy cans along with other engine mods such as big bore, big valves, hairy cams etc is a different matter!

Try Remus or Leo Vince cans.
Busters had some in their sale recently.
Typical prices are;
Oval alloy road £199*
Titanium road £250*
Carbon race £250
Alloy race £210
Prices are for LeoVince on the Busters website.Items marked with * are road legal.

Glyn, buy a spare set of standard cans and then get your original modified like mine have been. Only takes five minutes to swap them if you need to.
