jardine gp1 exhaust?

gsxrninja250 · August 28th, 2011, 09:50 PM

Hey guys,

I was wondering if anyone here had the jardine gp1 exhaust installed? And if so how do they like it? Is it really too loud? Or is it okay?
Also I wanted to know does anyone know of or have any videos of it installed and doing a drive/fly by? All I can find is sound clips. And I wanna hear what it sounds like under load.

Thanks guys

greatwhiteninja · August 29th, 2011, 06:08 AM

im pretty sure that exhaust is about as loud as you can get.. its basically straight pipe. search youtube i know ive herd some idle/revving clips of it.

gsxrninja250 · August 29th, 2011, 12:46 PM

Yeah I've seen the idel/revving clips. But I really would like to see some fly/drive bys to hear it under a load. I like it cause its loud. And not a lot of people have it

greatwhiteninja · August 29th, 2011, 01:24 PM

Well I have a area p with a shortened can.. mine is loud and it is a little much at times and I'm same as you I like loud. My guess would be the gp1 is even louder since it has no baffled.. on the hwy or above 60 its screaming and gets to be a little much after 10 miles or so LOL

Nemesis · August 29th, 2011, 01:32 PM

I believe Rexbo has one installed on his. And let me tell ya...it's so freakin' loud I could hear him 5 corners away on the track. LOL And I'm not even kidding.

I would not recommend this for street use--ticket magnet.

greatwhiteninja · August 29th, 2011, 01:38 PM

Like I said mine is loud and I even have some baffling still. No lie guys at my work can hear me a half mile away getting off the hwy LOL the gp1 has to be even louder ...

Nemesis · August 29th, 2011, 01:41 PM

"Like I said..." the Jardine is loud(er)!!! LOL

Here in california cops cannot stop you just cause you have loud pipes. Plus I see guys running jardine gp1's for the r6 and gsxr 600/750 with no problems. And I can here them miles away lol

Well, here in Cali they CAN ticket you for loud exhausts if it exceeds the required decibel.

Yes they CAN ticket you for loud exhaust. But in order to do so you have to be stopped in a db testing station. A cop cannot stop you just cause he thinks your exhaust is too loud

Yes, he can but what he will write you up for is using an aftermarket exhaust that's not to be used for street.

I had my share of run-ins.

Lol. I haven't seen anything stating that the gp1 is track use only lol. If there is such thing can you show me??

greatwhiteninja · August 29th, 2011, 03:24 PM

if you want loud thats gonna be about the loudest setup you can get.. our bikes just dont have the best sound though.. not like a larger cc sport bike. so the sound ours produces gets slighlty annoying fully opened up.. reminds me of a atv or 4stroke dirtbike..haha!

my guess would be technically it probably isnt street legal in terms of passing your states inspection.. the GP1 doesnt have a muffler so that would probably make it illegal but once your inspected i cant see many cops bothering you.. or just ride with some harleys so they drown out some of the sound..lol!

If you purchase the exhaust and there's a sticker/card that says "Not Street Legal" or "For Off-Road Use Only" (something to that effect) than it's not legal.

Honestly, peeps should be fine. I just like to keep my street bikes stock, and prevent from giving cops a reason for pulling me over.

mgp growler is louder than straighpipes

incase some havent noticed, some pipes actually resonate the sound and make it louder than straight pipes

I disagree .. if I take the can off my area p it is loud x 10 LOL

Cuongism · August 30th, 2011, 02:12 AM

I believe pretty much almost all aftermarket exhausts say "for Off Road (or track) use only" making them illegal (I've had Yoshi, Area P, and Two Bros). Pretty sure they're not DOT and full systems remove both catalytic converters.

And Nemesis...why is Rexbo 5 corners ahead of you? Don't you have Ohlins??

No, It's not. I have had all of the "loud" exhausts including the Growler, and I can personally tell you it is not louder than open headers.

gsxrninja250 · August 30th, 2011, 03:41 PM

If it does not have the CARB legal stamp on it, it's not street legal.
I have been stopped for exhaust in California more than once.

They can and will use it alone as an excuse to pull you over.

I don't know what you are bumping the thread for.
We are waiting for YOU to go buy it and tell US what it does.
You won't like it and you will get ticketed most likely.

There is no reason to buy the loudest race exhaust you can for the street.
That is why nobody can give you input on it but the track guys.
Nobody would really want it in a neighborhood.

Yoshi and forget it.

gsxrninja250 · August 30th, 2011, 09:19 PM

I don't like the yoshi pipe. I don't like the sound of it. And I don't go off and buy something without reviews.

With the carb stamp and stuff. Let's be real. Is any modification really legal. When it comes to exhaust and stuff. Heck even a after market car exhaust is illegal. Modding a dirtbike, a harlys, or a sport bikes exhaust isn't legal. From what I've gathered

A cop can stop you if he thinks it was you that farted that he smells.
I know people with area P that get noticed. You're gonna get a ticket on that exh.
Get er done! I wanna hear your bike under load on video with it too.
They say it's the loudest pipe and that's what you're after..

greatwhiteninja · August 31st, 2011, 03:02 AM

All these pipes have very similiar sounds .. they basically all are cans with preferated tubes and glasspacking..obviously the gp1 is different because it doesn't even have glasspacking .. but even my area p, I put a danmoto on it, sounds the same as the area p can Imo..

ALL aftermarket bike exhausts are not street legal by emission standards. (no cats)

Car exhausts (cat-backs) replace the muffler, not the catalyst, 99% of the time. Thus they are street legal.

GP1...It's stupid loud. Annoying loud for the street. Track only IMO.

Not 100% if this is true on not, but don't some tracks (infineon) have DB limit. If that is the case I very much doubt (from the idle video I saw) that the GP1 would pass.

DarC · September 1st, 2011, 05:44 AM

Some do because of their location. the GP1 would probably not meet the requirements at that specific track. That highlights the point even more. It's loud.

Cam0 · November 4th, 2011, 01:17 AM

Hey guys,

I'm looking at getting this Exhaust just wondering if anyone had an problems with it?

How loud is it really? does anyone have a Db reading of it or proper comparison?

Cheers guys!

DarC · November 4th, 2011, 01:27 AM

Db comparison? Take the loudest Db # you can find for any N250 exhaust and add 10 Db. That should be a good starting point.

Better yet just take off your muffler and rev it up a bit and that will give you a close idea.

wandyhee · February 17th, 2012, 01:13 AM

i'm very close to buy this exhaust from ebay, but i'm not to sure if it's work with fuel injection version as I don't see any bung for o2 sensor on any part of that exhaust. did asked mechanic in my area and he said ok, but still need some clarification from you guys who had some technical knowledge..

Way to Ressurect the thread.

I'd imagine though with the right EFI mapping it wouldn't matter. This exhaust is loud as hell though! So don't forget that. I have to put around in 4th gear in my neighborhood even.

Rexbo · February 17th, 2012, 08:59 AM

Here's sounds from my bike, and yeah its regularly the loudest bike on grid except for maybe one of the old straight pipe vintage bikes. DEFINITELY do not use it on the street, its ridiculous:

Depends on your typical street ride for me which is at most 45mph it's not too ridiculous. I know plenty of motorcycles which are more loud at that speed than the ninja, but anything above 60 is ridiculous and headache causing.

I love your bike by the way, wish I had a trakc near by.

Rexbo, that's your bike? Excellent. That clip of you revving it up with no comment other than a quasi-disgusted "frickin loud!" has cracked me up for some time.

I put GP1 on my race bike and I'm even a little nervous about running it at PIR (don't want to annoy everyone else too much lol). Hope they don't bring out the db sensors, there is technically a decibel limit at the track. :: looks over shoulder ::

wandyhee · February 17th, 2012, 07:27 PM

bought it already.. hope it'll get to my address by next week

wandyhee · February 28th, 2012, 08:19 PM

ride my ninja with jardine gp1 exhaust since last saturday, super loud, can't even hear my buddy r1 (with yoshi) screaming next to me

drphils87 · April 17th, 2013, 07:50 PM

Yeah man I kinda regret bying one because I have to wear earplugs all the time. I get better gas mileage though since it's so annoying loud to go past 4500 or so. Just listening to that video gives me a slight headache

That's funny. My friend and I are racing and he bought the GP1. When we finished our installs on the bike and went for a test ride, I left with my ears RINGING! I told him if he is going to race without the baffle, I'm not racing. It's that loud! With baffle and it's still loud but managable.
