What did you wind up paying, since I'm looking into the same system? Best price I found so far was $2,200 from my local dealer. Not cheap by any means.
S4Rs - Termignoni 50mm DP Kit Behavior Questions?
Just had the full system installed last week. Been having too much fun on it to post about it until now, especially with the unreal weather we've been having in Chicago... ;D
Ever since the installation:
- headlight does not immediately turn off when ignition key is turned to Off position. It stays on for maybe 5 seconds and then goes out. Is this normal? Did not think the new ECU would cause this behavior.
- at what temp does the radiator fan turn on? 216F? With the cooler weather (high 50F), coolant temp only reached ~ 215 in stop/go holiday shopper traffic but I did not see the fans go on.
- Fuel mileage seems to have gone down slightly. I can get maybe 110mi in city/highway commuting before low fuel light comes on but noticing only about 90 or so. Could be the winter blended fuel here in the Midwest...
- Less heat radiates onto left leg/thigh. No more catalytic converter. A good thing in hot weather. Miss it in 40F weather.
Bottom line is this not inexpensive modification is fun. I have to admit, it's louder than I expected but the ability to insert the "dB Killer" baffles fairly quickly will come in handy...
Too bad it's going to be winter again with highs in the 30s this coming weekend...

No, it is not inexpensive but it does, at risk of sounding cliche, transform the bike.
My dealer gave me ~ 10% discount, so I got it for under $2100 + $200 install + tuning (3 hours of labor total.
My only gripes so far is slightly reduced fuel range (although it could be the winter fuel in my neck of the woods) and there is also some of the fitment issues noted by others. The pipes are not perfectly parallel when viewed at certain angles and you can tell the canisters are not perfectly aligned in the downpipes.
None of this matters once everything is installed and fueling setup is in the ballpark. The first time you roll on the throttle hard and hear that sonorous basso thunder coupled with racous intake honk, you will probably think to yourself it was money well spent.

Thanks guys for your responses! In retrospect, I should have done this the day I bought the bike...
Sorry, not the best pic but...

Beautiful color choice Tam 212!!! [thumbsup] [thumbsup] [thumbsup] [clap] [clap] [clap]
That's the first I've heard of the headlamp delay during shutdown. :-\
90 to 120 to the reserve average, but it can be done in 75 also. > [laugh] :angel:
BTW: The Corse Slipper Clutch Rocks just as hard as the full Termi System! ;D 2nd Best Mod to my Rs to date! [thumbsup] [thumbsup] [thumbsup]

Thanks SHADOWCHASER.
Yes, during a trip to Georgia in October, I had the fuel light come on at ~ 85mi. That was with a stock bike... long legs she ain't got, that's for sure.
Dare I ask how much the DP Slipper Clutch costs?
