OK - just spoke to Rob from Devil Exhausts and here is the deal:
the Carbon Hi Mount Slip-on costs 499.00 through Devil, and they are the only distributor in the country. They're one of the oldest (if not THE oldest) exhaust manufacturers and the slip-ons yield between 4 to 4.5 hp. The sound is very close to the Micron actually, low and throaty with a real mean sound. The pipes are guarenteed and the best part is they are NOT very common, since they do not sell to warehouses like starcycle and M.A.W. or kneedraggers and the like - to me that is attractive.
Rob at Devil has extended us a price of 390!!! It's a great deal and they look fantastic - check this link:
http://www.devilbikes.com
Look at the 02 R1 hi mount: This price is for the SP2 carbon can (round) with an oval duct, this is the best sounding one with the most HP gain - this is also the ideal one for the silver R1s. We need at least 8 people though, and I'm one of them, so if you're interested, call Rob at 732-254-3008 and get the scoop- they're reputable and stand behind their product, plus the factory is right here in New Jersey (for all you east coast guys) so check it out! Mention the group discount for Nick and the group for the R1 slip ons.
R1_OOKLAH 03-15-2002, 09:15 AM ive posted a few times about devil i have the full ti himount and its awsome and its a 4into1 header.
wish i could help with the price discount but i have one
try telling him that mine counts on the discount because
i bought it less than a year ago and paid full price and its
a full system :thumbup
Anubis 03-15-2002, 09:44 AM I just placed my order with Rob. I was going to get an Akra system but that Devil looks sooo bad ass.
Did you mention the group deal - obviously, I'm sure you did, let me know what he said.
Also - I'm sure Rob would hook up anyone looking for an exhaust, even for an older R1 or a completely different bike - remember, these guys DO NOT sell to wholesale places, so we're bringing them a ton of business and I'm sure they'd hook up a great price on any other exhaust - so call and ask! I can't wait to get mine, I'll post results when I do, along with pics of the tail modifications.
turborl7 03-15-2002, 10:16 AM Question, I couldn't tell by the picture but does the highmount retain the rear passenger foot pedal?
Someone 03-15-2002, 10:36 AM Yes. ;)
Footpeg remains intact.
Anubis 03-15-2002, 11:00 AM I think it looks sooo awesome. $450 total. That includes shipping. I'm getting the Carbon Fiber. Rob gave me a 10% discount. He said he'd call as soon as they got in.
LudEcrous 03-15-2002, 11:24 AM Hmmm...very very tempting ...we'd have to ditch our stock tailights though right?
ditching those damned signals is already part of the plan - cleans up the rear a ton. I'll either do an LED array in the tail light OR do a flush mount on the fairing - either or....
Just wanted to clarify, the group price is NOT for the shotgun pipes - they do look cool, but they're a problem for HP since the extra routing and twists actually makes you LOSE power...
The deal is for SP2 can - it's the top carbon can they make, it's a single can, hi-mount and the twists are actually a little less extreme then on the micron hi mount. The micron made a 3.8 HP difference, so considering the smoother curves on the devil, I think HP-wise it will be pretty close, not much more not much less - just wanted to clarify that this is NOT the shotgun setup though, which in the R6's case cause a drop in power.
juttsr1 03-15-2002, 01:03 PM hey guys i just talked him and ordered one. he said he would put me to the top of the list seeing im with the forum. WOW. i like the way it looks, it looks like the mig . HOW DOES THIS PIPE SOUND COMPAIRED TO THE MIG?:D
Fenian 03-15-2002, 01:24 PM So, maybe I'm not really understanding the above messages, but is it true that if we install this can we'd have to remove our stock turn signals? I'm not too crazy about the stock undertail, but I was kinda planning on holding off a little before ripping it off.
If we do have to remove the stock signals, does anybody know whether the Competitionwerkes undertail will fit with the can?
blinkers: you will have to move them - you don't even have to remove them, you could actually just mount them down on the fender lower, however for me, that fender was history from day one, that tail is so nice, it's just begging to be cleaned up to begin with. When I finish the flush mount OR LED-in-the-tail install, I'll post pics - I got snypers pictures and they look mine - Great job by the way, and thanks for forwarding the email snyper!
sound: I've spoken to a few people at this point, mostly from the LI group I ride with - alot of them rave about the sound - they say it's very close to micron only just a bit more tone and just a little louder than the micron - which to me is great because the microns are a little quiet and a nice low tone is just what I'm looking for anyway. As soon as I get mine I'll be posting a whole detail on everything, but for now I'm going on other people's experience who I ride with a trust.

Posted about the micron again - I've heard the MIG and they're quite nice too, but a little whinier and higher pitch - the Devil is meaner and lower for sure- more tone and less whine.
Anubis 03-15-2002, 02:11 PM www.devilbikes.com has some sound clips. They have the '00 R1 high rise slip-on. I think the '02 might sound a little different with the fuel injection. I already removed my stock turn signals and put some extreme short stalks on. I'll put some pics up, but it'll probably take a while.
Nude rider 03-15-2002, 05:11 PM Scud, I'm pretty sure I'm in, but I just have a few questions. So it'll be 390 plus tax and that's it? It says shipping is free on the site so I'm assuming he's not charging us. The pipe sounds pretty good on the site, but have you actually heard one in person? I don't need the loudest pipe, but I DON'T want a queit pipe.
Can you or anyone compare it to a Two Brothers, b/c I loved my old one?
BTW, yeah I finally got my silver R1, but do you believe I just found a ****ING dent in the tank:mad: ...........That's a whole thread in itself.
I should know for sure after tomorrow (if no rain) b/c I have to go back to my dealer and BITCH my ass off and if they don't do something I might end up in jail cuz I'm ready to kill someone:machinegu
juttsr1 03-15-2002, 10:32 PM with the devil pipe, YOU WILL NEED TO TAKE THOSE STOCK BLINKERS OFF.
So is the devil pipe loud??? does it sound mean. im looking for some noise here.:D
juttsr1 03-16-2002, 04:35 PM are these pipes loud?
dmossyamah 03-17-2002, 11:51 AM Hey yall,
I just installed the mig carbon fiber high mount on my 1999 YZF R1, and it is sweet. I bought mine from second look designs. I'm not sure what the retail price was, but I bought mine at $416 with no shipping cost, and that was not at a group rate. If you call second look, ask for mark and let him know you saw this on the R1 forum and he may start cutting us a deal.
BEWARE!!!!! Don't order shit from starcycle. I'm still fighting to get back $365 for a high mount blue micron that I never recieved, which by the way, second look will sell to you at $320. Take care yall.

dmossyamah 03-17-2002, 12:01 PM :rock
Hey yall
By the way, second look does sell devil exhaust also. Call Mark and tell him that David and Steve from South Carolina told yall about them, and see what they can do with a group rate.
Their website is www.second-look.com
:thumbup good luck.
If you're not on an R1, :finger
Later yall.

Nude rider 03-17-2002, 02:17 PM Where ya at Scud? I sent an email but I don't think it worked. I'm almost positive I'm in. How many else are in? kehst43@yahoo.com
went away for the weekend...some answers for some questions:
so far 9 people are in plus me, so it looks good. I think the pipes should be in by early next week or so, according to Rob, so I'm sure there'll be a ton of posts. The pipes are defintely louder than micron, but just a few Db...enough to notice but not enough to wake the dead like with a D&D.. I actually got a call back from one of the guys I ride with on LI and he said they sound remarkable - "meaner and deeper than a micron" is the exact quote and I've never heard that! They're not common which to me is the best part.
I'll be posting as soon as I get mine- in the meantime, there's no obligation no anything, I called, worked a deal for my home riders group and included all of you guys, because I believe that it is a very good deal on a pipe that sounds mint, looks awesome, adds power and IS NOT found on every other bike like most of the other exhausts.
scooter 03-18-2002, 01:32 PM Ok I just called Rob, and he told me its not $390. For the carbon fiber it is $449(no tax, free shipping), and for the ti its $470(no tax, free shipping). So beware he told me he couldnt do $390. Still a good deal though. Thanks for setting it up Scud
BLove 03-18-2002, 01:54 PM are you guys planning on sticking with just slip ons for your 2002s ...
are those slip ons gonna work with devil full systems when they come out with them..and the power commander comes out...
or are you just gonna ditch those slip ons once you decide you need the full akro systems¿?¿?¿?
:p :p :p
yeah, Rob called me back- basically the slip on is 499 plus 45 for shipping so it's normall 545 total - instead of giving 10% off the regular price AND charging us for shipping, he's passing on the no-shipping deal plus the discount, so instead of 545 it's 450 total - you save 95 bucks, which is around 20%, I thought it was a pretty fair shake.
to blove and the rest: when they come out with the header, yes you can use the slip-on with it. My belief is you're going to need the power comander to do so, since you're losing the EXUP, and YES, Rob will extend another break to anyone who bought with the group discount and decides to upgrade to the header later.
juttsr1 03-18-2002, 02:01 PM when are they going to be in?:rock
he said most likely sometime next week - we're on the top of the list I think because of the group order, which is cool.
Nude rider 03-18-2002, 04:38 PM I emailed them direct about the sound. This is copied and pasted from my email :
Our pipe is simular to the Two Bros sound and actually a bit louder under accelleration. The deep tone is like Micron.
The sound on the R1's are a little quieter because of the Exup valve, but the fact the DEVIl opening on the rear of the can is pretty big turns into great sound.
Thank you, Rob
I'm calling to order today or tomorrow, thanks and good idea Scud. We should buy parts like this more often!
