Please let us know what you think of them compared to standard ones.

I am still on fence whether to get mine fitted or sell them.

It can be such a hassle with the insurance companies as soon as you mention an aftermarket exhaust .... i know, i know .... don't mention them but the fear is they will not pay out for a claim if 'undeclared'.

I'm with Steve I have read a few other threads on it but was leaving a termi install as a gift from my wife for the future. Congrats and would like a video of ride time with them if you can. Scenery doesn't have to be pretty. City riding would be good to.

Congrats!

Please let us know your opinion versus stock. I too am on the fence.

Man with everyone gettings Termi's on their 899s i am surprised that there still isn't any good sound clips of people's systems.

If you make a video of the sound (which i hope you do) can you not do it in a garage where the sound just reverbs all over the place. Just do it outside and possibly going up and down your or an undisclosed street.

I'm still getting the Akra's though

Looks like rain for the ride to the dealer :-( as for sound I will see if I can sort something out but will be away off to work for 2/3 weeks from Wednesday. There is a couple of YouTube clips from a guy on another Ducati forum.

But the reverb is awesome! Here's my last bike in my garage. Check out the reverb when the engine is turned off

When I get mine in e couple of weeks I will post a good video. I think my camera captures the sound pretty good.

Oni, can you get Akra slip on's, having trouble finding them, have been told the only slip on is Termi, would prefer Akra's.....

Doctor - Unfortunately Akra do not make a Slip-on. You can only get the full system.

Bugger....

I have the Ducati perfomrance pack on my 899... which is termi slip ons, ECU and engine map.

They aren't too loud and the main difference that you can't really get on a sound bite is that they give a pretty impressive pop on the upshift when you use the quickshift in the higher gears. In terms of performance mine feels stronger than the demo I rode but I have had the pipes on since day one as it was part of the free upgrade the UK got for bikes registered before 31.12.13. I had them put on new so I didn't have to pay the labour and any problems were then the dealers responsibility.

I missed this great deal & have had to pay for mine. But can't wait to hear them

The thing about hearing the exhaust online is nothing compared to real world. On sound clips all you hear is the chattering noise of the engine which mic picks up more of. I say hear it in person at the dealer or someone who has one on. You'd be surprised.

You will love them on the upshifts.
