hope all you TSR-EVO riders are still impressed with the quality and performance and price after a season of riding? or do i sense the £100 that you could have spent more on a quality pipe would have been a better deal! am talking mileage rides not sunday morning in the sun rides!

I must be lucky as mine is fine, don't even use the tailcan support bracket. Yes I've threadlocked and tightened the three M6 nylocs that hold the can on, but no structural issues so far.

If it is going to get damaged it'll be from grounding it on a speed bump, it hangs very low.

Had one on 18months on gt kit with no problems tbh, also fitted a few with only one failing at rear can due to worn shock.
Jl, franspeed nk etc all perform well but i find stubs ain't the best and tail cans wobble and wear out.... Best i ever had was Pm with tapered u pipe

Mine was due to it being so low and it hit one particular speed bump in france, unfortunately this particular bump had a one inch steel bar protruding all along the apex as it was at the entrance to a car park and the gate was a sliding gate?

4mph, bang, immediately ripped one stud out and then on further inspection part of the cylinder fell off.

I've dug it out of the shed this evening as im bored and took some photos which are at https://flic.kr/s/aHskHhXDy1 if you really are interested in making me an offer given that they are now £199 plus post. Its got all the bits that came with it new but I had to quickly replace the original black hangar spacers as they cracked like a boiled sweet, so now have genuine JL white nylon spacers from andy francis, plus the original rubbish cheese nuts got uprated to stainless nylocs.
