    Does anyone here know what they are like? [1] Are they a better quality
    than Micron or on a par? [2]

    [1] I've tried googling but so far I've only found info about exhausts
    for cars, not bikes.

    [2] IME Micron are shit.

    As they're based about 1 mile from my house I've been to their, ahem,
    lproduction facility'..... The product is OK, maybe on a par with Scorpion,
    but not the best or the worst.

    They'd seem to do very little testing to see if the cans actually improve
    power or owt (I was there while they just knocked up a std parts-bin job for
    the FZR250 without even blinking..).

    If you can wait til the BOSM then it's only a 30 minute ride from the Black
    Horse.....

    And I've been to Scorpion's which seemed OK to me, plus they were very
    helpful in person.

    I think WRT value for money Scorpion kit is hard to beat.

    G-Force sound like a lot of pattern exhaust firms. There is no real R&D
    behind the product - beware. Scorpion do some testing I believe but I doubt
    many are on the scale of Akrapovic or Yoshimura etc.

    I ran the G-Force system (connector and muffler) on the Buell for a while
    until the bike killed it.
    The vibes literally split it apart, but it had a lifetime guarantee, so I
    contacted them and they sent parcel-force to pick-up the split connector,
    re-welded it and returned it free of charge.
    Riding back from BOSM last year it split in the same place.
    Phoned them up and they confirmed they`d had similar problems with the KTM
    and other vibey bikes, they`d modified the connector mounts and sent me the
    new model, again free of charge.
    Quality of their products is on a par with other cheap producers.
    Value is excellent for what they produce.
    Service ( at least in my case ) was excellent, they pulled out all the stops
    to get replaced/repaired parts to me asap.

    You might consider Venom exhausts (sorry no link).
    I`m currently running their muffler with the G-force connector.
    Again quality might not be up to some peoples standard but value and service
    is...they custom-shortened one of their stainless oval mufflers to my specs
    and posted it to me nextday for the price of one of their off-the-shelf
    mufflers.

    Hmm, there's one on E-bay atm, and I'm reluctant to bid if it's crap,
    and I don't want to end out paying as much as it would cost new.
