There is a member on here somewhere that has a set like those on his rc51 but they were for a z1000. Look very Moto GPish.

Of course I am biased, but I can certainly vouch for the quality. A pair of maggots on a '51 would be cool...

Not saying there's anything wrong with them, but that's exactly why I wouldn't want them near my RC.

I run a Tyga full system with a Moto Maggot can on my NC35 track bike, it's great.

It'd be interesting to see mounted and dyno'd on an RC51, J.D Hord told me an RC31 with stock headers and a Tyga Moto Maggot makes 5 RWHP more in the mid range than the best selling available full system ... pretty impressive gains from a bike with a very modest power output.

One thing for sure ... they are L O U D.

I also run an HRC set up with a maggot and I am completly satisfied with the sound, fit, funtion and performance of the set up. Weight?.... there is none! This thing is tiny and built very well.

It'd be nice if those fit on Sato mids, cheap/easy replacement for the track. Let us know if you get em!

Hmmm...the Tyga exhausts weigh the same as lead - is this your claim? They're not heavy - I have cans on the shelf - happy to weigh them for those that are interested! Of course, there is likely a *lead weight* somewhere on the planet that would match each exhaust, if that is your claim...

Come on Mr. Green - only speak the truth, please.

Here you go - The Maggot weighs 23.4 oz. (664 grams approx). Don't feel like digging out the triple beam for this at the moment - close enough though.

The other cans in the picture (right to left):

Tyga EXSL-0033 (Ninja Aluminum can-not pictured) - 44.5 oz

Tyga EXSL-0032 (Ninja 250 carbon can ) - 45.0 oz

Tyga EXSL-0012 (larger carbon can) - 60.7 oz

Muzzy can in picture - well used - very little packing left - 54.3 oz

Zero Titanium can - 75.1 oz

Two Brothers can - 77.5 oz

Thanks!

Bill

Too bad you are still up to your old tricks.

As someone who sells a competing product you also "have a dog in this fight", so lets not try and mislead people by posting unfounded and derogatory claims as "just an opinion".

If you really think that it not reasonable for a stainless steel can of similar size to weight more than a can made of titanium, you need your head examined.

it seems to be pathological with MRGRN ... here he is getting hosed down by the moderators over on the Hawk forum just a few weeks ago for posting exactly the same kind of unfounded and derogatory claims against Tyga:
