On another note, I've heard a set of Luftmeister mufflers on a R75 that
had a fantastic throaty sound. They show up on Ebay once in a great while.

Re: Sports Mufflers
I just located a set of Hoske Replicas, anyone heard these guys?
They look like they have removable Baffles.

Can't anyone out there in Cyberland give me their opinion on the Hoskes if they heard them in the flesh.?
Have watched a few You Tube clips and they do sound nice . Is $500 including Shipping from Germany
a good price?

hi boxertwinjeff, i have a set of sports staintune mufflers on my R90 and yep the growl when you crack it open, im not sure if you can still buy them or not , but they do sound very good and especially at full noise !. regarding hoske pipes , if the baffles are removable does that mean you have to re-pack them when they start to get a bit noisy ( when the packing inside the mufflers break down ) or are they removable to shack the house on start up
( non ADR approved )

Re: Sports Mufflers
There's an Englishman named Jim Cray, in Kent. He'll sell you a set of Keihen made straight thru SS pipes that look just like the BMW oem, except for the wider exhaust outlet.

They'd be less than half the price of Staintunes, and that includes delivery from the UK.
Upper is a Jim Cray designed muffler. Lower is oem. Right click...view image.

Here's a short video of the noise they make. The popping is now sorted via opening the mixture screws a bit more. 170 mains, K&N filter, snorkels shortened a bit, but the airbox remains intact. Volume.....The second one is Grant following me coming home from the Talbingo ride last year. It's a tad longer.

Am I to understand that "noise' will define a marketable and desirable product ?
