Should bring yours up to Newcastle Glenn and get a true (conservative) reading.

.Mine made 158hp with a pipe small air box mod and velocity stacks and a jaffa with a full r77 and pc3 tuned made 176hp on the dyno my new setup was run in and tuned on.Thats realistic enough for me.

[kawasuki]

Hey boys my bike shop priced me $1800 for headers and pipe, and will fit them for a nominal fee, i'd shop around !!!

Man, they look schweet mate! What are they worth a set??

Yah keen to also know.

Bit confused on piping solutions, seen them from 900-2000+

whats a good price, whats a complete rip. cheers

Ok ouch, priced this pipe today thru my local dealer, $3000 .... I do think this might be a little on the rich side though but you know, I am in darwin :|

Hey guys, I got quoted $2800 for the R55 full from the dealer, got from motomummy for $921 US (inc freight ) so roughly $1400 AUD.
No wonder it makes it hard to support your local Aussie dealers and keep the money in the country. I don't mind paying a bit more to keep it local, but double is just not on.

Hi all, had the R55 full system installed on the Busa on Friday, and what a difference it makes. Feels like a new bike, so much weight saving, and feels like more kick down the bottom end, and more importantly, the note when its cranking is just awesome!! Definitely recommend it.

arround 831 USD with 100 USD for shiping. so 931 USD which is arround the $1200-$1300 aus. on motomummy.com

Finally ordered my r55.....
Anywho Quoted originally approx $140 USPS for postage. Price all up was 981USD
Then Got an email telling me the parcel is to large for USPS and has to go USP and is gonna cost $285

Maybe they jusst dont like me considering everyone else in this post seems to of gotten their pipe via USPS for more then $100 less postage.
This was from morepowerracing

Slade, morepowerracing is shafting you on shipping.
Below is the reply from motomummy sent on Nov 21 2009. This is for the R55 full system shipped to Australia - as you can see below it's only $100 USD for shipping.
motomummy busa r55
Once in the checkout I think they take another $10 off, so it's only $821 USD

Reply -
It's in stock and it would be the price on the website after you add it
to your cart. It would be 100 for usps priority mail shipping. You can
order right online. If we can do anything else please let us know.

If I were you I'd ask MPR to price match inc shipping.

Will see what I can do.
Fingers crossed

Slade, morepowerracing is shafting you on shipping...

Yeah, they know their gears cheaper than here also. A pair of alloy heads for my V8. Great deal compared to Aussie middle mans price but shipping by the seller was going to be US$150 more than organising a local (californian) courier to pick the damn things up and take them the three miles it was to a USPS depot. Well worth doing if your not getting any joy. You can always check what the shipping should cost at http://www.usps.com/ Cheers

[Slade]

Order has been cancelled, waiting for them to refund my cash, They wanted proof I could get it cheaper, then when I showed them they just said ok we cant do any better...
Still denied being able to send it via USPS

Copy from the email sent to me in regards

The reason this box cannot be shipped with USPS is because USPS only allows a certain size box to be shipped to select overseas destinations. For Australia, these size limits are:

For Express
Size Limits (221.42)
Maximum length: 36 inches
Maximum length and girth combined: 79 inches

For Priority
Size Limits (231.22)
Maximum length: 42 inches
Maximum length and girth combined: 79 inches

As per the USPS web-site: http://pe.usps.com/text/Imm/ab_012.htm#ep1572941

The package being shipped is 39” x 15” x 16”. The length plus girth on the package comes out to 101” which exceeds the limits for Express and Priority shipping through USPS.

Now I may be stupid, but how do they get 39 Long, 15 wide, 16 high and turn it into an overall of 101? Am I on crack, or was the seller......


Either Way Im over it, wont deal with morepowerracing ever again, they left a bitter taste in my mouth
