Something of interest for a UK Skorpion owner?

Postby Alg » Sat Mar 24, 2012 4:56 pm

Check out the first black header down on the left hand side of this link, might be of use to someone on here.

I have nothing to do with the company. I was just browsing a recommended site.

That racing system for the SZR is well done. A couple here in Germany have installed it.
It does not fit the Skorpion.
It might, however, be worthwhile contacting them about make a similar system for the Skorpion; that would need only a different, straight, left header pipe.

Bill, you must not have seen the request for a Skorpion.

"We're looking for a bike to make an exhaust around. If you've got one and want a nice stainless steel, large bore system made for it get in touch and we'll work something out..."

As for the asking price...... :shock: I guess these low production number specialty parts demand a premium profit margin.

premium profit margin.


as someone in a production business and also someone who has made one-off exhausts myself,
I can soberly say that this SZR system is not expensive at all.
The Termignoni for the SZR cost 800€

you can easily see why any SZR system cannot fit the Skorpion


here one I made for an SZR
