Two real choices - Remus or Albert.

I'd wait for Albert to come home from his hols & build you one. 8-)

Like the man said Albert is the way forward. I put one on my 08 Uly and cannot fault it in anyway.

I've just fitted a Albert pipe to my 1125R. It's the most beautifully constructed pipe I've ever seen seen, and his welding is a work of art 8-) :worthy:
On the other hand, I once had a Remus fitted to the bike and apart from it being double the price, a weld failed on it :roll:
When I contacted Remus to ask about how I should repair it, filler rod type etc (I didn't want another 6 week wait from the importer :roll: ) all they would tell me was that it was 'micro welded' - which is meaningless :roll:

Although I'm strongly recommending you go to Albert, I added the Remus as an option as I ran one on my Uly for 3 years with no problems whatsoever - and felt it was just right for the bike at the time.
