Hi all...I've not been on here for a while due to one thing and another. I'm looking for a bit of guidance on whether I should try and get an exhaust made for my Honda Foresight or pay £260 for one of these

Can anyone provide any insight as to what is the best approach to take?

Many thanks

Julian

They were different hangers. My old X9 250SL couldn't use a Foresight exhaust.

No idea about Hondas...but £260 for an exhaust sounds really cheap! Suzuki wanted more than £700 for a new exhaust for the Burgman 200, and of course Yamaha want £1000 for Akrapovic systems. No idea if its any good, of course.

Look on ebay. Some bargains for aftermarket exhausts do come up. I had Leo Vince in the past and they were OK.

I'm based in Darlington (in the North East). I might have to bite the bullet and get a proper one....it'll cost more than the scoots worth :-)
