www.starcycle.com has titanium and carbon Akropovic Slipons in their listings.

Like how Newportcycleparts had it on theirs.

Just called starcycle and they said they dont have prices in the system on them because they dont carry them at the store.

Great web design team huh?

Triton

LOL

Consequently, I just called Newport Cycle Parts and their phone number has been disconected so I was unable to receive a price from thier shop.

I called Akrapovic and they told me there is no Akrapovic product specific to the GS500. Maybe some other slip-on fits, but it sure wasn't designed for the GS...

D.

What's up with this?  There are at least 4 places I found offering Akra for gs500?  Maybe there is one that is the same spec? :dunno:

I've found four place online that list a slip-on for 2004.  However, I haven't called because I am not ready to buy.  When i found the sites I was only researching exhaust options, and that was a few months ago.  

My point is, I have seen it listed on four different online retailers' sites, Starcycle being ONE of them.  I was merely suggesting that perhaps these four retailers (a rather small number overall, don't you think?) may have known of the demand for GS exhaust and found a model that fits and then adverised it as a 2004 slip-on so, oh, I don't know...people who are looking for it might actually find it?

How is that BS?

www.starcycle.com
www.newportcycles.com

those two are the ones i know of.  i already called both, they said there isn't such a thing as an akra slip on for the '04 gs.  they also list jardine full exhaust, although when asked about it, jardine no longer makes it.  go figure...seems like false advertisement to me.

it's not false advertising, it's just really bad business.

i'll give all of them a call again (when they open) it doesn't look promising...  :(

and what's up with buymoto.com...it doesn't look like it's a fully functioning site...

this is all  :bs:  :bs:  :bs:

on the bright side, even if this slip-on exist it'll be around $500. that's alot of dough! i don't think it's worth it to put it on a gs... :roll:

jk...i just think there are much cheaper alternatives...srinath, where's my pipe?!!?  :mrgreen:

Why don't you ask them about it?

I still find it odd that several different dealers are listing a slip-on that doesn't exist.  I mean, I could see if it was one, but several?

they could be coming from a single source...? or could it be that someone or something is playing a sick trick on us  :dunno:
