EuroCycles owner has a very heavily molested Strada and he has a bad ass Sargent seat, I personally molested it today.
Is it this one? here
They also have a "low seat" version.

So, back at square one with the exhaust. I talked with some racing guys that have the Akra evo exhaust and they said it is LOUD (111Db). Too loud for any useful riding on the street from my perspective. As tempted as I am to get it, I'll probable stick with the stocker or perhaps Termi slip-on. I just don't like the look of that Full Termi Ti can.
Bronch, I thought you might appreciate this QUOTE]
Hey Cali, thanks. I saw that one... I scoured you tube the other day! It does sound nice even on that over compressed video file.
can't imagine running a loud pipe on a bike I'll be doing long distance trips on.
Zvez, not loud at all. That loaner that I got has a full system and it is very manageable. Half the loudness of a stock Pani system, but does have a bark if you open it up.
I'm a weenie bronch, I always wear earplugs!
Congrats Bronch! That's the next bike I plan on purchasing so me and the wife can take some trips together and just for a more comfortable touring bike with some cargo space.
I also don't like the looks of the bulky looking full Termi system end can and would just get the CF slip-on myself to add a little but keep the noise down.
I just sold my Harley Fatboy and placed a deposit on one of these! I'm a little depressed about the Fatboy. I put a lot of care into it and the motor, but really was ultimately not my style. But, very excited about the MTS! Of course, I struggled with what model to get. I originally wanted a better bike for 2-up and weekend trips, but couldn't get past the blingy Pikes Peak for tooling around on and commuting. I'm looking into bags, but will probably go with the Ducati ones.
I'm stuck on the exhaust though. Was thinking of the full Termi, but not sure about the big Ti can it comes with and whether the passenger pegs or panniers will get in the way. I like the slip-on size better and it comes in CF! The other I'm looking at is the Akra Evo system. Really nice looking and good power gains, but expensive, need a PC and dyno tune. Decisions, decisions...
I have the full Termi. It comes with new passenger mounts and panniers mount perfectly. Oh and in sport mode, the bike will pull wheelies all day
Nice, just what I need! A touring wheelie machine...
I ended up going with the full termi, I appreciate the info on the pegs/bags. Any problem with the extended exhaust melting the pannier?
Thanks, I just got her home! Very happy... Don't miss my Harley anymore, this will be great for trips. I only took it out for a little spin tonight, but extremely comfortable and love how it corners. Really surprised. This thing will be fun on the track too! Getting the top case and panniers in a few weeks.
Bronchie, you got them mods fitted or what? Post up pics!
