Laser Produro

[Muzz]

Just a quick couple of observations about this exhaust. When I bought the bike a couple of months ago, it had the standard can fitted, but came with a Produro can. Due to circumstances far too dull to go into here, I haven't had chance to fit the Laser until this weekend, and what a difference! I've fitted aftermarket exhausts to just about every bike I've ever had*, but none with such a marked improvement.

Firstly, the original can is so heavy light has trouble escaping from it, whereas the Laser can be lifted without industrial equipment, and secondly the bike is transformed - it pulls cleaner, is more tractable, and generally feels like it's got another 10hp everywhere.

Now, either Laser got it completely right with this can, or the previous owner had the bike jetted for the Laser and then put the original back on before selling it. I'm guessing the latter, but has anyone else noticed an improvement after fitting a Produro?

* Apart from an Armstrong MT500 (only because nobody made one), and starting with a Piper 2-1 which I bolted onto my XS250, despite the fact that it had all the styling of a drainpipe, made a parping noise like a goose being beaten to death with a tuba, and introduced a cavernous flat spot into an already nonexistent midrange. But hey, it spat flames on the overrun, offended just about everyone, and I was 18...

aaaargh....please don't talk about XS250s or I may have to go back in for therapy.

This may help, or alternately it may just drive you over the edge, but... it was the XS250SE Custom. And I put 14" apehangers on it. And a sissy bar. And 6" over forks...

As I said, I was 18*...

Back on topic ..sorry guys..
I fitted a lazer pro to my 600VR alp.. much improved.. no change to jetting ( bike is running rich any way .. so will need to check the chokes etc. but that will be when the cast comes off..... ) anyway .. back to the topic... as well as losing a couple of stone by replaceing the cast iron original with the svelte stainless steel pro.. the annoying flat spot at 4-5k disappeared too.... would recommend the mod to any alp.. and the kit is well made too

tis true lazer make good gear and it tends to be well set up . however keep them clean because the are prone to serious discolouration

This is a bad thing?

[robelst]

Is this Laser a (very) loud version?

I changed the original exhaust with a BSM Future (street legal) and have cleary lost considerable torque around 4k. It is still pulling well up to over 110 mph just like before, it is light (for what it's worth ) and it looks pretty but I am still not overly happy with it
I wouldn't want a very loud can though either, therefore my question
