STAINLESS STEEL JL FRANSPEED RACE for Tuned Ts1 230..............pros and cons
I really like the look of this pipe, but do they crack easy or hold heat from the cylinder?????
anybody with any experience.
ps currently on a super tourer which pulls well other than the 4500 rpm flat spot.
so really want to know is the bling look of the stainless worth the money.......?
ciao

i have a stainless steel JL3, cracked in two places but that might have been a fitment error( ie. i bolted it all up from the front backwards, probably straining the tailpipe area) had it welded up and it`s been fine since.

thanks for the reply, i can imagine if its stressed it wont flex like the mild steel........so easy as she goes will be the secret on fitting.
ps do you notice any more heat than usual form a std mild steel????

l find with the JL pipes you have to file the slot in the sharks fin considerably for them to fit stress free .

agreed, had to do that with jl3 and super tourer and never had an issue so i suppose that's the secret especially with stainless steel..
