Ive had experiance of them and it hasnt been good! I must stress though thats only my experiance. The set we got, one each side made no where near the power of the stock pipes (lol dont get me going on that again though) _________________ If I have to take the carbs off once more...
had a set on an elsie looked and souded great, but gave me the impresion of a copy rather than any development having taken place _________________ "cant you see the no smoking sign, this is a public space" rrrrrrriiiiinnnnngggggg ddddddiiiiinnnnnnggggggg 2 stroke till i die

We agree on something !
Nikkons are diabolical for RD / RG500's, and other popular Yamaha / Kawasaki twins. Diabolical might be the wrong word but there's no enhancement to performance other than the illusion of more speed from the extra racket and the expected dip in bottom end power - me reckons the headder pipe and primary diffuser calcs. are all Pete Tong.
i dont agree that tygas can be bunched with nikons, i think tygas are an absolute steal, as far as our guest says about the thin constrution, what do you want cast iron? thin = light=speed=loose wieght= i dont have to eat less pies _________________ "cant you see the no smoking sign, this is a public space" rrrrrrriiiiinnnnngggggg ddddddiiiiinnnnnnggggggg 2 stroke till i die
I think the referral may have been towards the old mild steel TYGA pipes. The new stainless steel versions are great value for money, and very well made.
Yes, a lot of development, especially with the GP style pipes. GP pipes always used to be down on conventional style pipes but the new TYGA's compare (even beat, I seem to remember) them now.
The new stainless pipes are up on power compared to the old (discontinued) mild steel pipes across the entire rev-range.
Are the stainless pipes a better fit than the old mild steel? I bought a set of second hand mild steel ones some time ago. The fit was ok but not as good as I expected. The swing arm contacts the right side until compressed with all my weight. Just wondering what to expect from the stainless.
The TYGA SS pipes still need to have the lower fairing spaced so the pipes don't melt the plastics.
I did find that with the SS pipes, and the Tyga body work this wasn't an issue.
Also note that my iFactory pipes on my 28 race bike need to have the body worked spaced to avoid contact, so it's not a Tyga specific fitting issue. _________________ Charles Gallant
