[@HunterHonda]

To be fair, You picked a limited, hand made, Aprilia exclusive SC Project system, and compared it to a basic Graves exhaust with a hideous logo on the side... Your average SC Project slip on does not cost much more than that graves system, and looks undeniably better. It is also in MotoGP, and is a championship proven exhaust brand. The GP-22 is one of a kind, weighs less than 1 lb (the mounting hardware is the only thing that puts this over 1 lb technically), and it sounds VISCOUS. And yes, the packaging is pretty nice, but I don't think that justifies the price of course. It's just a cool, unique exhaust that people have the *option* of buying. And it having a nice presentation seems right. Yes it is expensive, you don't have to buy it, but these are potentially a 1 time deal.. Meaning they might not manufacture them in the future. So the price point I think has a lot to do with the limited availability, and the hand craftsmanship. Same with the stealth mirrors by Rizoma. They are manufactured from a solid block of Aluminum. The FOV might not be great, but they are definitely a plus, for people that like the look. And bar end mirrors on a supersport.... I don't think they look good. Maybe on a naked bike. But I think the stealth mirrors are more designed to be used when in full tuck, not sitting in an upright position. Most people remove their mirrors completely, so it's nice just to have the option. Anyway, I know you aren't going to change your mind or anything, I just wanted to point out a few things. Because I personally love SC Project exhausts and Rizoma mirrors. Please don't view me as an "influencer" either. I haven't posted in years and could care less about all of that. I just appreciate good, solid brands that put out products that are 100% undeniable quality. This video could hurt their business so idk, I felt the need to say all of this. Excellent production on the videos man.

[@adobomoto]

I know man. It’s definitely just an opinion piece and I seriously doubt this will hurt their business. They don’t need me to say they’re good - I can name a dozen other “influencers” who can attest to their quality I’m sure. I think there’s this side of “Motovlogging” that’s been missing for a while - the realness or grassroots side of this space. I used to love watching you guys do this, but right now the space is stale and I’m sorta playing devil’s advocate. I had to sit back and think things through - how can I not be another C2W, HunterHonda, 650ib, yammie, etc etc… Again, simply an opinion piece - the strategy to find those people bored of the stale Motorcycle content and want to drink some ice cold water. The only moto channel I really follow these days are those 44teeth guys. Hope this helps explain my content thus far…i think there’s a majority who think im hating. The truth is, im just looking to spice things up 😂 ✌🏾✌🏾

yeah great story , but the only motogp connection it has is the name . the aprilia we can buy has nothing in comon with the motogp bikes . besides that , to let an engine run optimum you need a airfilter/exhaust/taylormade mapping and get rid of all the enviremental nonesense they build into it , not buy a brand thats alsoi hapen to be in motgp . its a hypejob and obnoxiously loud

Numerous great systems out there, and for the quality and $, Graves,Yosh, M4, & Arrow shouldn’t be overlooked. Arrow is the best sounding exhaust system I’ve ever heard on a GSXR750. I could never justify paying $2200 for a slip-on no matter who was endorsing it. I bought a race-only full system direct from Yosh for a CBR1000RR for the same $, and at the time they had only built 12 of them for pro race teams like mine. You’re 100% correct that those $ would be better spent on better tires, brakes, and track time. However, exhaust systems tend to grab the attention.

[@adobomoto]

This one is 💯 for clout. I love arrow. Ran a full ti arrow on my 2015 r1 race bike and 3/4 graves on my r1m street bike

[@SamuraiThePunisher]

Arrow on CFMoto 800MT like my moto sounds awful it doesn't have a soul! So in the end maybe is personal preference??

Continue to be impressed with your no nonsense yet super informative content; keep up the good work!👍🏼

[@Phantom_Yur]

I think what Sc-Project is doing is correlating their prices to the price of the motorcycle. Meaning the higher the price for the motorcycle, the higher the price for the exhaust. Like for example, for a Yamaha R3, it costs ~$700 for the exhaust system. For a higher end Yamaha, like the MT-09, it costs ~$1200 for the exhaust system. And another higher end, the Yamaha R1 will set you back ~$1600 for the exhaust system. If we add in more rare or exotic motorcycles like the Aprilia, it will boost up the price massively. What Sc-Project is doing isn't good to the sense of the normal rider that will at most spend $20k on a motorcycle, but Sc-Project is pushing the fact that the more people are willing to spend on the motorcycle, the more they spend on the exhaust system/slip-on.

[@crad5476]

Many other manufacturers do that too. They know who they sell them to so they up the prices, because people are retarded.

[@hamzahghufran]

Dude you are so absolutely right about the rizomas...

[@ihateeverything3972]

They don't look right on the bike. I've seen them on two or three bikes and I remember them always sitting wrong, and being at a weird angle. They don't look like H2R winglets at all, they sit on there awkward and you can tell it's well made shit, but it makes the bike look jank anyway

[@thewheeltroll1833]

Totally agree! I have a Akra on my rsv4 as well and like the look of the GP-22. But $2.2k is seriously an unrealistic price point. A set of forged wheels would be a better buy at that point.

I don't think SC Project exhausts are overpriced. The SC1R slip on, for example, is comparable if not cheaper than the Akrapovic slip-on for the 2021+ Aprilia V4. The GP-22 though... It seems to be wildly expensive pound-for-pound. BUT...I don't knw what it takes to create such a beautiful exhaust and isn't price determined by what someone is willing to pay?

i agree totally with the gp22 sc project exhaust, i think it is something like £1600 here in England. My problem with the cost of it is the actual size and the amount of titanium used to manufacture it would cost probably £100 - £200. I would rather buy a cheap Chinese knockoff of that end can which is exactly what i did with the stealth mirrors, the mirrors look cool on the rsv4 but their function for visibility is poor and can actually cause a safety issue as i was looking too hard with elbows flapping up and down for too long to see what was behind me.

I don`t understand the hate at all. I think SC-Project exhausts are by far the most beautiful exhausts on the market. There is a video online from Meddes with his RSV4 and the SC Project ...that sound is just perfect in my opinion. But i guess thats just me since I dont like Akrapovic at all, they are ugly af, extremely expensive and the sound is not what I´m looking for. Regarding the Rizoma Stealth mirrors, I think they are the most beautiful mirrors on the market. The field of view may be subpar to other mirrors but i guess thats not the point. Performance and looks are 50/50 of importance for me. Leave the stock mirrors on if you want, but they look like shit. A hardcase on the back of the bike may also be very convenient but looks like shit. I can agree with the point, that it is a good idea to spend your money on training and gear, but after that....

I’ve been happy with my Leo Vince slip on on both my track CBR250R track and my Husqvarna street bike. The Husqvarna application is CA legal too. The CBR250R isn’t because the oe muffler is integrated with the catalyst converter, but it’s not a street bike anymore.

[@thesolorider3446]

Yeah I was sick of those gimmicky mirror trend look’s stupid and destroys the look of the bike… glad you pointed it out

[@ESBKLife]

I'm with ya on most things but disagree on the exhaust systems. Motorcycle exhaust systems in general are expensive and ALL have marketing hype, including some from Graves. For example; "This Graves Aprilia cat eliminator motorcycle exhaust is handcrafted in the USA. The Graves Motorsports Aprilia RSV4 exhaust dramatically improves looks, increases horsepower and reduces over 10 pounds from the RSV4's weight. Graves Exhaust systems are designed for the elite driver seeking top of the line performance, fit, finish and value...... blah blah blah". I also think you purposefully selected the most insane pricing option from SC Project lol. Again for example, Graves has a "Slip-On system for a 22 R1 for $650. Their slip and cat delete system (i.e. a link pipe) starts at $1500 and goes to $2300! For the same bike, the SC-Project slip-on is $850 and the cat delete system starts at $1550 and tops out at $1670. An AK system is about the same, $900 for the slip-On + another $700+ for the link pipe. It's fine not to be an SC Project fanboi but let's not bash them over their pricing model. Having said that $2200 for a slip is INSANE!!!! However, I 1000% agree on the Rizoma Stealth mirrors!!! 😆

[@roverworks4886]

For my 2024 Ducati Streetfighter V4 SC Project was cheaper than all the other options. Arrow, Termignoni, Akrapovic (especially) are very expensive.

[@julian23561]

But its an all-time favorite of our fellowmen down southeast, perfect for shitbox 110cc Honda Wave Alpha with missing fairings.

[@adobomoto]

hahaha nice

[@jeffdaigle3033]

I have a full titanium Graves exhaust system on my 2016 Yamaha FJ09. Its absolutely amazing and I love it. I have a 23 Yamaha XSR900. I wish Graves produced something for this bike, however they do not. I went with a full system from Yoshimura.

[@MrJunior82006]

Idk if they are still around, but when I had my 08 gsxr600 I had a jardine GP1 slip on and it sounded sick and looked about as good as the SC slip on for like $130 at that time.

[@Loochy3]

Got the Akra System for my R1 with the long Slip-on. For me its a way better option then SC. Better Perfomance it can be somewhat quiet, and thats Important here in Europe on our Racetracks. Germany, Italy and France

[@MK0413]

Schätz mal du bist deutsch die WSBK replica Anlage von Akrapovic für die R1 scheppert trotz dem langen Topf ziemlich und die SC Projects kommen halt von der Leistung nicht an die Akras

[@Loochy3]

@@MK0413 Ja fast Deutsch xD. Aber die Wsbk Anlage ist ja die "kurze" oder nicht? ich meine denn Trackday Endschalldämpfer der wirklich lange. Mit beiden Schalldämpfern kommt da schon in die nähe von 98db. Und mit beiden draussen kann auch gut laut sein. Leistung ist Akra natürlich top. Aber wird sich im Frühling zeigen wie es wird, bin die R1 erst jetzt am bereit machen.

[@MK0413]

@@Loochy3 komischerweise ist die wsbk Anlage größer, bzw. länger. Aber ja, mit den dB killern sind meines Wissens beide für alle Rennstrecken (außer Sachsenring, da geht nur OEM Anlage) Viel Spaß mit dem bike 💪

[@Loochy3]

@@MK0413 Kann sein, bin mir da echt nicht mehr sicher xD. Wird wahrscheinlich meistens Italien werden. Cremona,Misano. Und halt Hockenheim wahrscheinlich. Da sollte es auch noch knapp funktionieren. Zuerst muss sie dann auch noch abgestimmt werden. Und danke dir.

If you talk like this man, that product is definitely not targeting you or your needs. But it doesn’t mean someone else has the same perception or desires as you may have :)

[@adobomoto]

I agree with you 💯 percent. Ride your ride, buy what you like

[@Punisher8300]

So id really like to know WHERE youre finding a graves slip on for 5-600 hundred bucks all while completely downing SC. I literally just looked up graves and their slip on was 900 bucks for my bike, direct price from there website.

[@humblenepali]

I personally like the rizoma mirrors but there’s no way in hell i’m spending $400+ on fu*king mirrors 😂🤣 it really hit me when you said thats 2-3 track days! Really love your videos keep em’ coming bro🍻

[@nanabanana7618]

Same you can easily find some knock offs for cheap tho

[@ChrisMHDFilms]

I do agree that the price is a bit high for a slip on, but the exhaust is constructed from titanium alloy, and it looks identical to the MotoGP version. Graves exhausts might be cheaper but the look hideous.

[@adobomoto]

Lots of companies use titanium alloy including graves. Back when I first started riding over a decade ago we used to laugh at people with straight piped buckets. Now straight pipes are $2200 bucks and everyone is dropling over em lol

[@houjous5131]

they are expensive? must be a sport bike thing... SC Projects are the second cheapest can for my 890 adventure. Arrow is below that. Akrapovic is like 200$ more.

[@user-eh4xj4lm1p]

Sc project slip on exhaust on my dads Rsv4 tuono 1100 factory is best sounding bike I’ve ever heard. If you got the money, go for it

[@gregorygrimm3310]

Do you remember around 2006ish when TaylorMade exhaust came out? People thought they were soooo cool. Turned out to be a super crappy muffler that rattled apart behind a carbon cover. And people were paying like $700 back then for that as a slipon!!

[@adobomoto]

Oh fuck yeah. What a shit exhaust. But i think sc project is good quality.

[@davidwales9657]

If you don't have some wild italian exotica like an RSV4, and don't buy the "MotoGP Special Edition" product, SC project exhaust prices are actually perfectly reasonable. They're just stinging the wankers. Slip-ons for a 675 Street Triple are around $1,000 AUD in Australia, for just about any reputable brand, SC included.

[@CactusJack252]

I have a delkevic system (the cheapest full system) on my concours 14. I love it, it sounds great, made a difference in power, and best of all it did not break the bank.

[@joshuajones9883]

i have a full system & headers from SC project and it sounds the best out of every exhaust i've had, but i also had my bike flashed and tuned by Moore Mafia

[@ItsATrap614]

Keeping it real as always! Good video bro!

[@adobomoto]

Always!

[@notrobmoto]

Tried them and kinda did not like the way they sounded on my previous motorcycles. As someone who does long rides, the sound wears you down. I mainly run Austin Racing, even if you have to wait months for them. New sub here ma mang!

[@adobomoto]

Thanks for sharing

[@quietgsxr]

facts 😂 I even got the mirrors but more for looks cause I don't use the mirrors

[@monkeyengine3954]

Price is obviously excessive, but isn't representative. I paid £600 including delivery and import duties from Italy to UK for a titanium SC1-R slip-on for my '22 SDR. It's equally as well made as the Akrapovic I have on my Hypermotard. Both exhausts are beautiful and flawless. Customer service from SC was second to none.

[@daniellesniak3242]

I paid 300 USD for my Leo Vince slip on for my SD evo…

[@lucasdasilva5631]

Bro. I have a full CRT on my fz09 and I love it. It was $1100 which to me was a bit pricey but I bit the bullet and treated myself. Now $2200 for a slip on is STUPID. Ill staple a pepsi can to the collector pipe before I buy that.

[@nickcarlogayoma3955]

Kapwa pinoy here. My father baught a shorty sc project for his cbr(dont know what type it is). Tested it for a while. And also it power the as time pass by. The shorty exhaust makes the engine 'exhaust' for my opinion. Even motogp bikes, make their exhaust longer.

[@jamiesteiger6140]

I have been eyeing the SC for my speed 1200rs but it's $1200. I am looking at the Leo Vince for $450 slightly less of a premium looking product but probably similar sound. That SC looks great and I want to pull the trigger but....$$$$$$

[@Rsixmardz]

I just bought the Racefit black edition for my 765RS. Waiting for it to come in. I think it’s worth $600 and it’s handmade full titanium. They also have one for the 1200rs, look them up!

[@KeViNMCMXXCIX]

Did wonder about SC Project. The pricing was so weird and high. Arrow, LeoVince, Akra, MIVV are more common here and some come with an e-certificate for being EU approved.

[@Max-yu8fb]

The choice of my exhaust is Arrow, Akrapovic and Yoshimura (mostly prefer slip on)

[@adobomoto]

I love arrow

[@marinajoanmatias9308]

I agree witht the sc and super agree on the stealth mirrors..

[@scuderio762]

If you buy these stealth mirrors just grab cheap ones from aliexpess or some, they cost way less yet do the same thing. Ofc they‘re not made from carbon but metal still so yea

[@WL2K]

yeah but when was the last time you heard so much about a rearview mirror...? Folks are talking about the Stealth everywhere. I bet we start seeing designs from others that have that kind of aero transformery feature, but cost less, which will be great for the market! So good on Rizoma for pushing the envelope at least. I think I want them, but like you, I don't $500 want them. Any thoughts on the MotoGadget glassless mirrors? Experience?

[@adobomoto]

Good point! No experience, but i’m a fan of tech that helps us have a chance at not getting rear ended.

[@mytmousemalibu]

@Adobo Moto As a rider safety thing, not wanting to be run over, pretty high on the list. Bought a Vata7 LED backpack, its pretty fricken cool. Integrated running lights, brake, and turn signals in addition to a bunch of other features. I love mine, its comfortable, stylish, safe, and extra visibility without the hi-viz banana man crap.

[@mttmike]

yeah I am one of those that bought the Gp-22 slip on, yes prob one of the most ridiculous amount of money I have ever spent for a fucking slip on exhaust, but tbh no other manufacturing currently that can make an exhaust looks more clean right now and it sounds fucking amazing. So is it over priced? yes, but do I regret it, absolutely not! it's one of those that you just bought the most premium item and be done with it instead of upgrading down the road.

[@DasCayman]

The price reflects what people are willing to pay. Same with Supreme T-shirts

[@peper19]

I agree the GP exhaust racing “muffler” it’s over price. It’s hand craft muffler for hype people looking something different and less number. For me sounds just like No exhaust But for me that price. I later get full titanium system akaprovic exhuast. With CR-T muffler. Sounds more likely GP bike

[@redsox418]

The Rizoma stealth mirrors are so damn stupid. Motovloggers “stand by them” yet they provide less visibility than stock mirrors and cost a lot of money. Like cool on the extra downforce, I’m not Marc Marquez who needs that ish 🤣

[@adobomoto]

Lmfao

[@juliuscervantes5983]

Invest in yourself, track days, suspension tuning, decent tires, safety gear, etc.

[@RaceWithTime]

Ehh I think SC-Project is a pretty solid brand. The Conic exhaust that I had on a Ducati Monster was pretty affordable and excellent quality. I’d say they’re a top tier exhaust manufacturer. I will say that the CR-T exhaust (empty beer can) that every motovlogger/influencer has is pretty played out at this point.

[@EfferusZangetsu]

I had one on my Z900 and loved it. It was literally half the price of an Akra.
