  TITANIUM...??!!  on a BIKE...!!!???

  Remarkable...!

Jack, The system is remarkable. The stock steel single wall system 
on the GSXR is one of the lightest standard street mufflers at approx 
19 pounds. Titainum exhaust system 7 pounds. 12  POUND weight saving.
 When guys are going bonkers to save ounces that is a lot. Expensive 
cost to pounds saved. Bill Jepson
