Any one seen these before??

Looks quite nice, but if your advertising a pipe you dont put a load of writing over the picture

interesting.. I have already passed the message in Italy and asked for review of the company and their system... if is effective or is worse than standard!!!
I'll let you know any news from italy...

Can looks great on its own,(looks remarkably similar to the Racefit can!) and would look even better with Sandbars Corse style seat unit.
Only thing that spoils it is the rear light hanger.Nobody does it better than Termignoni imo.
Just my 2p worth.

Just send them a message in italian asking a lot of info... from what I can see in the italian e-bay they use a kind of plug (they call it DB killer) that can fit easy to reduce the noise at std level. They are writing that in this way is omologated in Italy as relevant the sound (which means has probably the same level of noise of a std Ducati can) but of course the problem is that is not catalityc anymore. Without the DB killer instead is noisy, track only version and termi noise style..
I asked dyno results ..if any... and a lot of other question..

Also as I wrote to ask my friends to find out about these e-bay cans, as in Italy right now ...the "buzz" is that the best race can for the 999 is the HPE instead, which if mapped with a PC give more HP than a Termi.

Let's see if they (the e-bay seller) write back quickly...

Got an interesting message back from Shark pipe...
It looks a small but cool company, and they are becoming quite popular in Italy especially for their Monster's cans.
I asked several question and they answered all at their best.
1) they are shipping everywhere, and the cost of Shipping in UK (London) is 45 Euro.
2) It is not necessary re-map the engine, but it is suggested a PC for optimal performance
3) withouth the catalytic converter there isa gain of 3 HP and a huge reduction of heat under the seat.
4) air filter racing is not necessary for the use with the Shark can, of course is better if used
5) the kit is Custom fit for the 05 model 999 with new type swingarm and there are also kit for older model 999 old swingarm type
6) with DB killer is the same noise of the std can
7) withouth, they have no data in decibel (I asked if less than 105, they didn't confirm)
8) their website is down but it will be up again asap..

I am now waiting comments from the Biker/collegues in Italy.... as I am sure someone is already using it.

Great info, was waiting for my Termi to arrive but might have a go at these to be a bit different

Has anyone found out anything new about these? I'm about to order some, and once fitted will happily let you know how I get on with them.
