I bought the Yosh. Everything Jardine that I've ever heard is obnoxiously loud for me.

Hmmmm, that's surprising to me that the Jardines are considered loud.
Even though my bike is different, mine is pretty quiet until I really get on it probably 'cause I use the street baffle instead of race baffle.
Does the RT-1 for the 1kRR only come 1 way or can you get street or race baffle like mine?

There's street and race baffle, all carbon or titanium with carbon tip. I have the race baffle all carbon RT-1 and that shiat is LOUD! Supossedly, the titanium is louder than the carbon? Damn, if that were true, then I think i'd go deaf cause when I ride, it feels like I have a sound system in my helmet.

Got them put on.....It sounds awesome. Not as loud as I thought they would be in traffic but you definitely notice. Doesn't bother me at all riding. Just a slight increase in vibration. Friend told me that they could hear me now when I pass by or am close to them. I'm glad I switched. Got the all carbon and it looks sweet.

slip ons are not meant to give huge power gains so forget about that. it's all about looks and sound for slip ons, i have the rs5 and love the look and the sound. personally i think the jardine pipe is ugly. just my 2 cents

I don't think they are that ugly but I am switching to the yoshimura rs-5. These are too loud. Not to where it bothers me but I almost can't hear the traffic around me. I saw not heard an ambulance come by so I am toning it down a little and going to the yoshi's. Hopefully they will have the deep tone just not as loud.

dual outlet jardine is the best looking pipe out there to me. as far as it being to loud its not... u hardly notice it if ur the rider, especially if u have a moded intake. i love jardine i think its the best bang for the buck. yosh sounds way too close to stock just a little deeper, i think i would rather punch out my stock than get a slipon yosh.
