Has anybody tried the Hotbodiesracing undertail exhaust for the Repsol 1000RR? I am trying to decide between the Yoshimura RS-5 slip on and the Hotbodiesracing exhaust. Any info will be appreciated.

How about a sound clip to hear how good it sounds. Anybody?

I don't know too much about it but from what I have read do not trust anything from hotbodies. Do a search on that and see what you find out.

One of my boys has an 05 1k and the hotbodies exhaust/undertail and it gets so hot that it melted part of the undertail and his front seat gets so hot that when we ride he poars water in his front seat when we stop. The worst 750 dollars he ever spent.

Thanks a lot everybody for your feedback. I really-really like the clean look of the HBR (HotBodiesRacing) undertail exhaust, but I am not willing to deal with overheating issues. I just e-mailed HBR asking for feedback on this matter. I will post their response as soon as I get a reply.

So, is the Yoshimura RS-5 the way to go? 439DLLS +S&H, plus integrated signal and fender eliminator will pretty much puts me close to $ of the HBR undertail exhaust.

The top is never the top!.

No, I haven't heard the two brothers yet. I did get to listen (Sound clips) some others like:

Slip ons:
Jardine Ti RT1, Jardine Aluminum RT1, Micron twin outlet, Arata Ti, Erion, Sato Ti, Yoshimura.
Full system.:
Arrow replica

I found all of them on this guys website: http://hooliganbiketech.dynup.net/hondacbr1000rrweb/1000RR_frameindex.htm.

I know it is not the same hearing the different exhausts through the computer, but at least gives you an Idea of how they sound. The site has some other cool mods.

[image]This is the first time I hear about the Magnum Devil Exhaust. The funny thing, is that I did a search for "Magnum Devil" and I got tons of hits about Magnum dirt Devil Vacuum Cleaners (Jajajajaja). It was not until I added "exhaust" at the end of Magnum Devil that I got the Devilbikes website. Thank you for the info.

Now, so far, all of the slip on I have checked out only add a couple of HPs (4-7) to the bikes, so at this point I want something that looks good sounds (deep enough) and powerful for my Repsol. [/image]

Okay, as promised, here is the response from HotBodiesRacing in regards to their Undertail exhaust for the Repsol 1000RR:

E_MAIL/QUESTION:

I have been looking for reviews on the Hotbodiesracing undertail exhaust for the Hondas 1000RR, and there is a trend towards overheating of the front seat problems and fitting issues with the systems. Now, I personally like the clean look of the system, but I do not want to deal with my seat getting so hot that I would have to pour water to cool it down. I would think you guys have received and replied numerous amount of e-mails about this issue. What I would like to know is if this is true and what needs to be done to correct the problem (If any). Anybody who spends 799 DLLS for a slip on exhaust like yours, should be receiving a good quality system.

Does the HotBodiesRacing company carries a customer satisfaction policy?



RESPONSE:

for that bike we honestly have had no problems. The problem that we get usually is that the customer doesnt slide the s-bend over the stock pipe so it cause fitment problems but as for heating up the stock seat it doesnt get hotter then what the stock pipe heats up ...we do have a 100% satisfaction policy for the undertail exhaust kit.

you might want to read some of the other posts on this forum on the hot bodies issue. Ctmoto puts them on and he gave me good advice on this issue. He wrapped the pipes or something to help with the issue. I didn't go with hotbodies because it's no good if you have any plans to take it to the track and race or what not. Been told that by many people and dealers. I went 2 brothers and love it. The sound clip on their website doe Not do it justice. It must be appreciated in person! Loud and proud!

Boy oh boy! It seems like 80% of the people I talk to about the Hot bodies undertail exhaust, say it is too loud and overheats. I really, really like the look of the system, but I am not sure about the exhaust itself being too loud. I am looking now into the ARATA slip on system. The two brother pipe looks and sounds pretty good, but it stick out a little bit too much.
