Anyone ever seen this exhaust setup called "Ethos", muffler clamps are suspicious looking like the Sato ones.

SimonKobe?
I thought he only did GP Cans.
These look like knock off Sato's not that I mind or even as if that's a bad thing. :clapper

Ethos is not as well known as Sato outside of Japan for SP1/2 exhausts but their stuff is good quality. I have an Ethos full system on my NC35 street bike and it is really nice.

made years before sato,in early 2000.
actually made by the guy who makes ladybird exhausts(and arata before)
below is the ladybird full titanium RC45 system(just for interest etc!)
I have 2 of them,bought to be models for the ladybird SP-1/2 system,but this one is so perfect it shouldnt be mucked around with

Ethos is just the name a shop in Kobe(about 30 minutes from me near mt Rokko)uses for its products.Also the exhaust can be used with an SP-2 swingarm.

Are you insulting my bike because of it's age ?

 

[simonkobe]

nothing wrong with the SP-1!

 

[Rothmans]

Ethos is nice stuff, remember seeing so many of their nice two stroke exhausts on NSR's. Actually surprised Simon is not asking more $$$ for this! You don't see these everyday!

The funny thing about an exhaust like this is that I would buy it - and then be too scared of damaging it should I go down!

I cried when mine got messed up in my accident earlier this year. Then decided a divorce was the only way to feel better about it. Best decision I have ever made!!!
