TiForce
There's a piece in MCN (UK) today about the TiForce system for the 14. The claimed weight is 13.7Kg, that's about 30 pounds lighter than the stock system.
Power gain is said to be 16bhp and 20bhp if re-mapped. It has a removable baffle for road or track use. Anyone know anything about these ?

At £930, which equals about $1,690.08 at today's exchange rates, I would tell TiForce to go fuck themselves with the tailpipe sideways. Quality aside, 1.6K is too damn much for a bike exhaust system. If this were about 500 dollars less, it would be about right. There are high performance full systems for automobiles with far more material that are in this price range.

I don't see any ZX-14 pricing on their website... probably comparable to the 'busa system though:
S/S OVAL FULL EXHAUST W/ O2 BUNG SUMO (99-05) $1,218.90
TI FULL W/OVAL CAN (99-05) $1,218.90
TI FULL W/ OVAL RAINBOW CAN (99-05) $1,320.90
TI FULL W/ OVAL CAN (SUMO)(99-05) $1,395.00
TI FULL W/ OVAL CAN W/ O2 BUNG (SUMO) (99-05) $1,526.50
Sweet looking cans, I love how it's all tucked-in and everything, but that pipe looks like
it would be a little close to the heels. Even the stock system was baking my right heel after a 30+ minutes on the bike in 90F+ heat.

Hey there. The stock system baked your heels because it was designed to get hot and stay hot.(thats the only way catalytic convertors work) Any aftermarket system will dissipate heat much better and shouldnt bake your heels. If your really worried about it though...try one of the carbon can systems...you can grab the cannister of one of those on a 100 degree day without burning you hands.
