Austin Racing Inconel Install - Part II

Ducati Forum

Help Support Ducati Forum:

So Burnsy we might as well talk in public now. You clearly ignored the positive things I've said about the AR pipe, including the fact that I genuinely like the pipe and intend to keep it once the new section is returned. If you are a fan or employee of Austin Racing then you are doing them more harm than good by railing against the other members of this forum as you have.
 
It is quite coincidental he signed up the day after Rich and Reganc "left", even though they continued to lurk for awhile. He is obviuosly UK, so either Rich sneaking back (he was kicked of another forum as well). or a very close friend or co-worker. No biggy, we can handle it or him if a real person :D

Lol. I smell a rat:D
 
i guess your AR pipe didn't break, and that's after the insane rigmarole of tuning (even tho manufacturer claims it not being necessary etc), not to mention these here comical threads.

WAf you are a certifiable masochist ;)

let's just ignore "Burnsy".

I PM'd 'Burnsy' after his first post, politely. This was his response.

based on the PM that's now public evidence, i'd say it's pretty self evident. but sure, let's take a vote.

all in favor say aye.

Aye here!

Shouldn't we vote or something. You can't just change titles on a whim:D

You gotta laugh! Just misplaced loyalties (and poor taste). It's ironic because with the extra HP we tuned out of it before we discovered the break that puts us at 195hp. When we get the replacement part back I'm pretty sure we'll be able to get rid of that dip in the power curve and the wrapping of the baffle should nicely round off the sound. You gotta be happy with that! Rich reckons it will ship end of this week so should be on the road the following week!
 
So ride the thing when your zorst arrives back, to much time spent posting up pointless stuff on this pointless thread and pm messages.

Stw needs to prove his claims against an austin product failure. Never had a failure neither did many race teams around the globe I worked with. My race 1098 ate Akra headers at silly amounts.
I say ........, put up or shut up.

Ignore me if you want but it won't stop me posting against the .... some of you sad muppets post up.
Do i work for austin!
In my younger days if austin offered me work I would have given my right arm to work for an outfit like them. These days naa I'm to busy chilling.
Oh yeah if you think you smell a rat it must be the 1 crawling out your arse hole!

Again, please focus your comments on bikes/products, stop bashing people.

Hmmm...forgive me...but do we not have first hand evidence of at least one failure???
 
Glad to hear you are getting good numbers. I did my first track day on friday and was pleasantly surprised with how the bike ran with the AR system and stock tune. As I mentioned in another thread. On track heat was a non issue, lumpy throttle was not a problem. Constant throttle could definitely be improved. The Rapidbike will hopefully improve this. If it does and all goes well this (inconel) system with Rapidbike will have cost me $3500.00 which is comparable to other systems out there price wise. The other options all look the same as stock and imo sound nowhere near as good. I do not know the weight of the other systems but I am guessing they are heavier than the AR. I do not care about the weight that much but I am sure others do.

Unfortunately the Pani will probably not see too much track time for the rest of this year as I am picking up a track prepped SV650 this evening. It looks like Ill be doing the bulk my track days at NHMS in Loudon and in my hands the Pani is just way too much bike at that track.

I replaced the stock rear shock with an ohlins ttx from Kyleracing and I have to say it was possibly the best upgrade I can remember ever having on a bike. This thing is planted right out of the box.

So in summary, if the rapidbike sorts out the fueling i'll be very happy. If further tinkering is required I would've probably preferred to go another route or left it stock. One thing I will say is that the sound of this thing bouncing off the wall on the straight at Loudon is unbelievable.


Hey Hey!!! We met at the track!! That pipe did sound sweet.

To be honest I didn't even read it! I'm downloading it now to catch up.

Oh and I probably should omit the 'very' as well, the Harley did have to make way for the HP4!

Hey genius. Your hero Rich was banned from a aprillia website after slamming people who had failures while attempting to race with his product. Do your homework before opening your sizable mouth.

AR failures were officially stated as common from the Spitlath guys, already quoted below on this forum, post #981:
http://ducati1199.com/ducati-1199/4232-ar-inconel-install-50.html

So, race teams did have failures, the info has been "put up" as you requested. Please don't deny these failures, Rich already did that in the other forums and it just pissed people off there too and pushed more people AWAY from buying AR based on Rich's attitude and now yours. You both hurt AR's reputation with the way you attack members. If you want to hurt AR's sales even more, by all means keep writing antagonistic posts. On a side note, I actually LIKE the AR exhaust, and would've considered it based on looks and sound alone. I really do like the product itself. But I would never consider giving AR my money after I read Rich's responses and threats of lawsuits etc. The way to win back potential customers (which this forum is full of), is to show factual posts demonstrating the product's good qualities, the past racing success of AR, heck, pics of AR bikes winning races is good marketing, respond only professionally without taking anything personally, provide only answers without opinions if representing a company, don't badmouth other companies, etc... not by childishly attacking members.
 
first step in winning back customers for Rich would be his public mea maxima culpa.
