| The titaniums on Keefyboys old 998s used to sound fantastic, a crisper metalic sort of a sound, compared to a deeper rumble from the carbon. I've got a basic 748 and added second hand 45mm termis. I had to run them without changing the chip for about 50 miles and it ran fine, then I put in the DP chip that came with them in and it made the performance horrible, in particular the throttle response. Neil Spalding at Sigma then fitted an FIM(?) chip at the DSC trackday and the difference is incredible. Nelly has worked his magic on it since then including fitting a 41T rear sprocket, but it's in full trackday fairing, so I've not ridden it yet - can't wait to get it on the track at Jerez at the end of the month. yeehhaaaa!!!
I reckon Termies pretty much hold their value once they've been sold on once, so if you sell up, you'll get a decent price for them, not sure if you could say this about others, despite excellent reputations. There's also something to Ducati purists that there is only one exhaust to put on a Duc and your bike is not complete without it.
