Kawasaki Concours 1400 Staintune Slip-On Exhaust / New In Box / We all know that the factory Concours exhaust can is as butt-ugly as Nick Nolte's mug shot. Here's the sweet looking alternative you've been looking for. Staintune exhausts are simply the best looking, best sounding exhausts on the market! It’s smaller, quieter, sleeker, has a removable baffle, never needs re-packing, and IMHO.. is simply beautiful. The quality is second to none and we all know there are a lot of cheap-ass systems available for the mighty 1400. The Staintune is made for the Concours 14 owner who wants only the best.
KA MS GTR 14 - All years Kawasaki GTR1400 Touring single Oval Sports Muffler We are a Staintune vendor in NC. This particular kit was special ordered by a customer and he didn't come though with the sale. Rather than ship it back to Australia, we're offering it here at a discount. FYI.. Retail from our website was $840 I should add.. Staintune has suspended all sales into the USA... This was kit was in our last shipment and there will be no more imported into this country. Bottom line.. this is your last chance to get one... Period. Note: According to their literature, Staintune exhausts systems will outlast all others, especially under the high-heat, high-corrosion demands of urban driving. The effort required to use only stainless-steel pays off in the long run for you. Even after the 12-month warranty has expired, small scuffs and surface imperfections can be polished out at any machine shop for a reasonable charge. The Australian made 100% Stainless Steel Staintune is the ONLY aftermarket exhaust on the market that features a removable sound restrictor. This allows you to adjust the sound levels to your liking.This Staintune comes with the SS Oval canister only. This kit fits all model year Kawasaki 1400s. INSTALLATION: On a scale from 1-10.. its about a 2. I did one recently. There are only 3 bolts holding the oem can on. Install can be accomplished by any owner with a decent set of hand tools and at least a chimp-like intellect. Working carefully you should have the old muffler off and the new Staintune in place in about 30 minutes. Line up everything before tightening the bolts. RESULTS: It weighs exactly half as much as did the stock setup-- The look is classy and aggressive. The Staintune offers a small (5-7 hp) increase in horsepower on an otherwise stock bike. The sound is superb. This kit comes with a restrictor/baffle that allows the owner to choose from two different exhaust notes--one just a little louder than stock and the other pretty rowdy. I prefer the quieter sound with the restrictors in place. CLEANING: Staintune's recommends their own polish called Liquid Mirror Polish. Wenol or Semi-Chrome Polish are very good, but we prefer Boms Away. Why? It's an unabrasive liquid and is simply easier to use involving less effort/time. It also leaves a glass-like finish on the metal when done. Of course, all of these polishing compounds do require a little "effort" as the main ingredient. Is the 'tune worth it? Absof#*#inlutely!. BTW.. I apologize that this is the ONLY photo I have of this kit installed.. If any potential buyers would like me to remove it from the box and take a few more pics.. I'd be glad to do that...Just ask.. |

Opel / Vauxhall Astra revealed
Wed, 13 May 2009New Vauxhall / Opel Astra revealed ahead of a launch at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September The Astra has been with us for 30 years, and this is the sixth generation to hit the showrooms. And it looks to be the best yet (as you would hope), with a cohesive style and loads of design cues taken from Vauxhall’s Insignia. This new Astra is built on the same platform as the much heralded Vauxhall Ampera (the Electric Car that will be the salvation of GM – once the technology is sorted) and as such offers a bigger wheelbase (up by 71mm) on a 4.4 meter (14′ 4″) body, with a wider track, which should make the Astra a better drive.
Mitsubishi L200 gets 5 year / 125k mile warranty
Mon, 01 Oct 2012The Mitsubishi L200 pick-up – a cross between a truck and a car – now comes with a 5 year, 125,000 mile warranty. We don’t usually do commercial vehicle news on Cars UK, but the Mistubishi L200 isn’t just a commercial pick-up, it also does a passable job as a family runaround. When we reviewed the L200 in Barbarian spec a couple of years ago we had a lot of fun.
