3 жыл бұрынIn this video, My new GPR exhaust arrives faulty, i repair it, fit the exhaust an give you some test clips. This is just a install video. Soon i will do a propper fly by etc, much like the FTR 1200 exhaust video

Thanks for this video. I've owned plenty of bikes in the past and will own plenty more bikes in the future and can honestly say I will never EVER give my money to GPR exhausts after seeing how shocking their quality control is. That's unbelievably unacceptable. I'm so glad and thankful (and lucky) I went with SC-Project on my current bike.

I've buy an other original one for 100$ and cut everything inside, just keeped the separation in the middle, put two perforated tubes, glass wool and iron wool. Sound just right, not too much, for like 200 bucks. I've find this one you just put on but the sell price is 650$ ... Not cheap for a GPR.

Hi, I'm trying to disassemble the exhaust to put the gpr ghost, but it doesn't come away, are there any central screws under the saddle compartment?

Hello mate. Can you tell me where you bought this exhaust? I looked all over ebay and GPR website and all i could find are GPR Ghost for Suzuki some version. I also contanted GPR and they sent me to their website, not much of a use. Looking to change cans on my Dorso. Cheers!

i found a dealer in Italy that had it, They sent it to me in wrong packaging. it took 3 months! for it to be found. ALl because he lied on the customs import forms. They dont make this pipe for the Dorsoduro anymore. and as you can see, he sent me a defective one KNOWING i was from another country. so this bike shop lied to me. but i got my money back and i repaired the pipe myself. i miss this bike.

Hello mate, I've got a question. A buddy of mines just bought one, is the frame number on yours stamped straight into the headstock or is it on a black peice metal? I think the one he's bought is hooky.
@AridersLifeYT 2 жыл бұрын
I think it's got a metal plaque. I'll check in a few hours when I'm home.

@@AridersLifeYT Ah you legend. His is on a black plate on the side of the headstock. Usually it's stamped straight into the metal. Also, Where's the engine number located? I can't find the bloody thing. And another thing, is the lower fairing an optional extra? I've seen a couple of dorsoduros without them, but some with. Awesome bike though man, love your garage set up.
