Hi All,
Just window shopping for now full full exhaust systems for my 2014 roadster and the only thing that looks like it would fit the bill is the Zard Snake at some silly amount of money
What I want is a exhaust with the following:
I contacted, just to get an idea, an exhaust manufacturer that does the who mandrel bending thing etc asking them the following:
I got a reply, basic estimate of ~ £900, not too shabby, certainly worth considering...
What options do I have that fit the list above and is available in the UK guys? Is going custom the only option I have apart from the Zard right now? The carpenter exhaust looks okay but I want something that can take a baffle as standard....

What I want is a exhaust with the following:
- 3 into 1 system with single can
- A non restrictive set of headers/pipes
- A sportier style of can (stubby/short not long) with removable baffle that doesn't sit in front of the rear wheel axle
- Ideally black ceramic finish
- Heat shielding on the pipes nearest my leg!
- And obviously a nice sound that can be quietened down with a baffle (a bit)
I contacted, just to get an idea, an exhaust manufacturer that does the who mandrel bending thing etc asking them the following:
"Just want a rough idea on price for a complete system for a Rocket III roadster, something along the same lines as the Zard snake (http://www.zardexhaust.com/wp-content/gallery/rocket-2010-full-kit-snake/rocket20101.jpg) but not bothered about all the curves with the pipes or the fancy sectional pieces, just a system around the same dimensions as the Zard that isn't restrictive (with support for a baffle) and that is black matt finished as I am blackening lots of the bike as I go. Also need heat shielding too...."
