Question Tt600R aftermarket exhaust

Does anyone have experience with the choice of aftermarket exhausts for the TT600R(E)? (the only one I have seen on other bikes is made by Arrow).

Having read a note on a webpage a few days ago about how the Termognoli original fitment shakes itself to pieces that is what has now happened with mine - the tail bit, fixed on with just two pop rivets is now missing in some hedge or other. Come to think of it, does anyone know a supplier for that key bit of stainless steel (or some other work around to seal the end of the aluminium outer pipe)?.

I rode it today and the noise had everyone looking; not good to draw so much attention!!

Grateful for anyone else's experience with this!!

Dave

I would recommend the Arrow Paris Dakar in stainless steel. They last, not too loud and seem to make the bike breathe a bit better.

I have a CRD pipe on my TTR600 good build quality and not to loud.

Edit 2/1/2008
Well the baffle has fallen apart inside the silencer
Got a new baffle but the packing has been discontinued I used different packing and pipe is far to loud now.I will try some different packing see if I can get it a bit quieter
