Staintune Exhausts are simply the best looking, best sounding exhausts on the market!!... There.. I've said it. Disagree with me? Then you're wrong. I chose a Staintune for my 98 RS over all the others for a variety of reasons. It may not deliver the same HP figures as the others (probably 4-5) but it makes up for it in other areas.. It’s smaller, quieter, sleeker, has a removable baffle, never needs re-packing, and IMHO.. is simply beautiful. Click HERE for a sweet shot of the header.

I have always thought that when winding through the gears, the sound with the baffle in was akin to a Ferrari F40. Take the baffle out and it sounds about like a Two Bros.. still not obnoxious. The design concept behind their exhaust is for real world street riders looking to possess the highest quality system available on the market today.

Pirates' Lair also sells Staintunes for Aprilia, Ducati, Kawasaki, KTM, Moto Guzzi, Suzuki, Triumph, and Yamaha. For pricing and info for these bikes Click Here As these are imported from Australia, it's always best to call before ordering.We try to keep the K12 version in stock. Note that when the Staintune US warehouse is out... it can be weeks before we see them. Call for availability at 828.628.7093 EST

Staintune's goal... to enhance overall dynamic response during normal street-riding conditions, rather than making boisterous claims to big horsepower increases available only at the highest RPM range at full throttle. Fits the 1998-2004 K1200RS & 2002-2005 K1200GT

Note: According to their literature, Staintune exhausts systems will outlast all others, especially under the high-heat, high-corrosion demands of urban driving. The effort required to use only stainless-steel pays off in the long run for you. Even after the 12-month warranty has expired, small scuffs and surface imperfections can be polished out at any machine shop for a reasonable charge.

The Australian made 100% Stainless Steel K1200RS/GT Staintune is the ONLY aftermarket exhaust on the market that features a removable sound restrictor. This allows you to adjust the sound levels to your liking. (see pic at right) You can see the little set screw on the underside. In case you are curious.. the 2 piece KRS/GT Staintune comes in SS Oval only and does eliminate the cat, but still utilizes the O2 sensor.

Cleaning: You may or may not have heard that Staintune pipes turn a golden color after use. This is true. The nature of stainless steel. Some do not like this aspect of it, but in reality, there are at least 4 products on the market that can keep your canister looking new. Wenol or Semi-Chrome Polish, are very good, but we prefer Boms Away. Why? It's an unabrasive liquid and is simply easier to use involving less effort/time. It also leaves a glass-like finish on the metal when done. Of course, all of these polishing compounds do require a little "effort" as the main ingredient. Is the 'tune worth it? Absof#*#inlutely!

We order directly from Australia. It takes us about a week to get Staintune systems. We do NOT keep these in stock. Therefore, delivery times to our customers are generally 2-3 weeks. That's why we have them marked as a Special Order Item! I'd suggest you try to think ahead and expect delivery in 2-3 weeks should you decide to order one of these. Savvy?
