Default Performance parts..

I have an 01 Honda RC51 and I was wondering if yall know the best manufacturer for exhuasts ans power commanders and what not for the bike. I am guessing the exhuast will run around 800 since it it a V-Twin and needs 2 mufflers but I ahve not sure what kinds sounds the best and delivers the best performance.

tbr's are good, and not too expensive.

if you want top o the line, the arata systems are sweet, but you pay the price for them.

Let me rephrase then. Power Comander is a specific product made by a specific brand (Dyno Jet). This is much like NOS is a product made by Holley. Or RC51 is a product made by Honda.

Yeah they are around $1k for a slip on set. But out of everyone that races and uses these they will go to no other exhuast.

And corey which type of PC would be better for an RC51?

By switch it up I'm assuming you mean change the settings/tune to better suit the bike with the new exhuast, correct? If so, then yes.
