The time will come when expansions are 'retro'. And I get the feeling it isn't far off.

What's he got?

How do you mean? The demand or performance?

I'd really like to know in what the Gori 50 outperforms the BGM clubman v3. I run the BGM on my SIL 200 (phbh30 47/19 gp200box ) and pulls like a tractor in every condition.

Gori outperforms the BGM in noise!

.......same, I wish Scootering would do a comparison on different bikes....

I've got a tractor with an expansion and it pulls like a push.

I'm drunk

I mean both.

People are after more low revving performance plus original looks. If you make an expansion that has broadly the same packaging as a standard clubman, exits Under the kick start and revs like a jl3, you'll make a lot of money. IMHO.

Apparently BGM are now remaking the Clubman exhaust using a new european manufacturer with several alterations to the design, both internally and externally.

^ sounds incredible after all the work MB did, testing all those other exhausts, hours and hours of work and now they have gone back to the drawing board.

As mentioned previously, please check out the Scootopia ones they look absolutely fantastic and at an excellent price. I'm hoping the performance will match, I know the build quality should help it last a lot more than the others out there, including the ropey looking BGM one.
