is brock the best??

This is a age old question. Is brock the best when it comes to upgrading your stock exhaust? 2012 busa. Not going to be drag racing. Just street riding.

Yes!   Helped install a lot of exhaust and the fulfillment is far the best.  Horsepower wise, Brock's exhaust makes the most.

IMHO, the Alien head is the best sounding exhaust, hands down.

Besides the sound difference and the typical reduced weight, what is the dollar to HP ratio, not for just a set of cans but for a complete system from the headers on back?  Seven to eight added ponies for what, a grand or so?

I've seen Gen 2s pickup 15, mid-170s to low-190s with a Alien Head, air filter, and dyno session.  Plus a huge weight difference that makes the bike feel more nimble on the street.

Of course we all could argue on why do you need 190 wHP on the street...my 150cc Chinese track scooter does just fine running to Walmart and back.  :lol:

Sometimes we as humans just can't leave well enough alone I guess. Why do they make 500 hp cars from the factory and the average speed limit is 65mph. Sometimes I guess it's just knowing you have it available I guess.

TiForce is a great pipe. Quality is great, makes good power.
Looks like Orient Express is running a deal right now.
Since TiForce is no longer in business you are on your own with warranty but based on my experiences I wouldn't think twice buying another.

Have a Harley, spent lots of money on it, thought I had a fast motorcycle, bought a Busa, realized all I had was a fast Harley, not a fast motorcycle!

To turbo051k-- why do you make that statement sir? I'm fairly new to the modding game and I would like for you to please tell me why those two brands over brock? Have you had some bad experiences with a brock exhaust?
