Personally I like the look but have never heard a set in person. Secondly there is a lot of hate for two brothers as well. Neither are bad IMO. To each his own. I have two brothers on my bike, its what it came with when I bought it amd I just haven't swapped it for anything else yet. Also most will say both exhaust add little to no power. There seem to be a lot of track whores on the forum.

The reason it's disliked around here is because all the thugs have them on their stretched and slammed r1's running 300 tires and ride with no helmets. People don't really want to be associated with those types of riders. Its a stereotype for sure. I believe they are actually made near me as well.

 

Negative. TOCE sucks for multiple, more technical reasons:

1. The obvious, looks. As mentioned, slash cut exhaust's on a sportbike just don't mix.

2. They are HEAVYYY. Those pipes weigh a ton.

3. They barely do anything for performance. Seems like a waste.

4. They are wayyy too loud. Just sound and look like 4 VooDoo exhaust's strapped to the back. Just horrible...

 

That's the bike in question (if it loaded properly). They're on an 08 but I've been told that they're supposed to be even better on 09s and up. Sucks if guilt by association is a reason why a good product may keep folks away.

I hate them cause they're ugly as hell... (in my opinion).

They remind me of the chrome slash cut tips a ******* would put on a v6 firebird with flames painted on it... or a ford ranger take your pick.
I just don't think it's a look that fits on a high tech, high performance sports bike.

And as for 2bros. I never had a problem with my set. But there seem to be a large amount of unhappy customers who've had welds break, pipes burn through, carbon fiber fray etc. etc. in what would seem way too short of a time period. So if I am to spend 700-900 on a new set of slip ons they'll be ones with a good reputation. The only reason I ended up with a set to begin with is because they were a used set for dirt cheap and I wanted something to put on.

It's a preference thing.

To some, like myself, they look like trash and sound bad.

That's about the size of it.

2 brothers receives hate from their sub par manufacturing.

 

I ended up buying the toce exhaust with the Leo Vince y pipe. I love the exhaust and it sounds amazing. A lot of people on the forum hate it because they're into performance and racing. Not really sure what the toce adds to the bike as for as HP but I like the toce.

At first I was a little hesitant to buy the pipes but a few days later I decided to bite the bullet and go for it. I still have the baffles in there and they sound great!!

Everyone has their own opinions on it....I like it!! If you have the money buy the akrapovic exhaust.

first time seen toce on 09+, i think it looks awesome.

i had 2bros on my 05ZX10 and loved it - i have full Akra's on my 07 now and cant justify paying that price for them, luckily it came with the deal.

 

"Slash cut" pipes belong on cruisers and muscle cars IMO, NOT R1's. They do not fit the "look" of a sportbike at all, in any way. Even if TOCE made the most power, most here wouldn't even consider them, because they just don't look right on an R1.:fact

 

+1 completely agree. they dont flow with the lines of the r1

 

they took the squid loud and proud award from D&D. :lol


Not good for your ears and everybody 500 ft behind you. :secret:

 

At least D&D looked good :fact

I just don't care for the way they look. It's as simple as that.

 

Because a lot of people in the forum have nothing better to do, except to critizice and hate on meaningless shit..

 

Or because every time we see slash cut tips we envision a guy with a mullet in a V6 firebird with dual slash cut exhaust, and fog lights, pealing out that one wheel. :lol

they're ugly as shit, no one hates them because they don't offer anything towards the track :lol

 

Before I bought the pipes I asked a member on the forum about it. He had all positive reviews about it

Everyone that has the pipes have positive reviews about the pipes

Anyone on here have the pipes and hate them?

Bought a set about 2 years back JUST because of all the hype about them.


Then yes, I sold them.

 

Sadly I seen this bashing coming. Slash tips don't take away from the look to me. Over all, the way thet are cut flows around the tail to me. But I also hate pipes that have the little "spout" out of the mufflers, and have never seen TOCE in person. Just my .02

If you like the exhaust who gives a fvck what others think, if you are here to get reassurance you didn't waste money on a shitty exhaust it isn't going to happen. If you want feedback, well you're getting that as we speak :fact

the ONLY quad exhaust that is worth a damn is the mv agusta's...

now that is sexy,

 

That's because it was meant for that bike when originally designed. :thumbup

 

OMG those are so FUGLY I hate them. I cant believe people still buy them. You would think they would stop making them because of not enough sales but there are some people who just like to kill the look and performance of their bikes and still buy these.

Like I always say "Ugly or Not there is always a buyer for everything"

 

I saw one the other day on a red 09. I was too embarassed to park next to it.:lol

 

:lol

Why was I not surprised when some dude with a mullet AND a mohawk helmet wearing a you guessed it, an icon jacket came strutting up to the bike. Turned that bike on BEFORE he had his gloves and helmets on letting the 3 surrounding blocks know he was being an ASS. :lol

I was like :crash

 

Get what you like FFS. Stop worrying about what everyone else thinks or likes. No reason to be like the Jones's.

Listen to what people are telling you.. They are butt ugly.. They a heavy.. An little if any performance and loud!... I would not even concider this exhaust if it was for free.. Pay money for it? And get seen with that exhaust on my bike? I might aswell dress like prince on a daily basis..

Buy something that works with the bike not against it...

Sorry... But then again.. Not everyone is the same.. If this work for you then buy it.. If you think that this is the most AWESOME exhaust for the R1... Then for the love of god buy it... I get some bashing for my helmet.. But i think i looks cool and it prevents from going 120+ mph because well lets face it.. The worst helmet ever made if you are driving fast..

 

That's the issue here, you don't give a shit if you look like a d-bag while riding, he does. Quite honestly though you're wearing a helmet, so good for you. You could paint a big ass dick on it pointing to your mouth and aside from a few choice forum members trying to run you down and molest you, you are good. At least you are wearing a lid :fact

 

I have the TOCE and love them. They are not for everyone, just like Aka is not for everyone. Not everyone is a track star, and lets be honest, the R1 IMO is more of a street bike than a track bike, and it don't need more performance for the street.

Really? I would have to argue that Josh Hayes and his R1 think a bit differently with the how many championships? These bikes are race bikes and are built specifically for that, get on an FZ1 if you want a bike that is more of a street bike. Even the FZ1 folks won't put a shitty, half ass exhaust on their bike though :lol
