3 to 2 Chromex Predators

This is a follow up to the pictures Sam posted Thursday. These show the both sides of the bike. The chromex doesn't come out that well in pictures (duller looking), but it looks much better in person (goes very well with the chrome).

Significant performance boost to the bike. Much more consistent acceleration, and the bike runs much smoother overall. Also, as a side note these are the best sounding pipes I have heard on the R3 so far. Not too loud, and with a really deep note to them. They sound and look fantastic in person, and a quick bike just got a whole lot quicker.

I am sorry guys, but I like the looks of the stock setup better. To me the stock set up is
just better looking. Just my opinion.

Looking good...But that's not a fair assessment because that color combo makes anything look good. It almost makes me look good Nice bike!

I already have a bike with that color combo. Triumphs should be black.
