So , you could do a group buy, cut the freight and grab yourself a bargain. Also you can specify no branding

Cheap....Even with freight its still cheaper to buy from van hooligan than van demon...no branding is good too....or you laser etch your bike type or model onto it?
 
I got one of the things from Cycler for a side project. The pipe itself is quite nice. The uniformity of the tubes, joints and welds are actually a lot nicer than the Akra sitting next to it. It’s somewhat Storm looking

The pipe also looks a lot better than the Akra. As I stated before, the carbon looks cheap and does not fit well but that’s fixable. The aluminum bracket is nicely machines but does wreak of Asian styling.

The cans are a joke. You might as well run straight pipes. The Vandemon etching on the cans, full tilt Asian looking. All that being said, no idea if there is any engineering in the build. It may just be a bunch of pipes.
For the money, (barring performance) it’s a lot nicer pipe for 2k than my Akra or Termi are at 5-6k. I’m sure it’s loud as .....

I couldn’t stand the VD silencers that left a gap under the seat through to the shock so replaced them behind the rear set with some Akras. They’re actually a lot quieter since they’re the stock FE bits but still sound great.

Close to Melbourne but not close enough....where did you get the Akra cans from? Or you had spares?

Bought them off TB. He had a set lying around off his race bike that just got sold at auction a month or two ago.
Star Twin motors gave me a good quote too
 
Are the cans on the Akra welded on? So you have to cut the cans off the akra system and weld them on the VD?
