Although I'm in love with the look n sound of this exhaust, had I not gotten this for $3395 from bellisimoto before the price increase, I probably wouldn't have purchased it. That's already a ton of money and can be justified by most when most places don't sell termis new for much less than $3k so the $400-$500 difference was more than worth it. At the current prices, not so much.
I'm more interested in seeing how Ducati is going to deal with this exhaust from a warranty standpoint moving forward. One of my local dealers had already made an attempt to deny my warranty claim of my melted lower fairing even though my pipes had not even changed colors yet which indicated that it was freshly installed and the melting was caused by the stock exhaust. After some back n forth over it, they are replacing it. Hopefully an upmap type of thing is released officially via Ducati and maybe we'll be covered regardless of relationship with a dealer.
