BERK - What is this exhaust going to retail for? I may be looking to buy come this summer or spring (hopefully). Also, it might be helpful to update your website with the new exhaust system.

No one except Minicobra has the exhaust to tell you. The HFC are all pretty much equivalent though.

Almost all exhaust systems are personal preference...

Right, but then that would mean that the non-GB'ers will have to wait longer to purchase (at retail price) because the first couple batches will be going to the GB'ers.

So, who knows when the rest of the public can purchase and at what price?

The first batch is due to arrive at Berk next week and then Berk will promptly start doing their in-house adjustments to the tip alignment and start sending them out. The first batch will cover almost everyone on both GBs. The second batch, will cover the last few GB2 buyers and have plenty left over for dealers stock orders and customer orders. That batch is due to arrive in April.

IMHO, I'd rather see a company delay something repeatedly than to rush something out the door. It was obvious they had issues with the company making their tips - they didnt hide it. So rather than release the product with issues, they are ensuring we are getting a quality product the first time. Not the 2nd or 3rd...

These exhaust should start shipping end of February just as we last said. They get the systems third week in February and they will immediately start making their adjustments and sending them out.

I agree Mighty, but don't you think Berk should have choose a company that would build to there spec, an QC standards? Not saying they took the cheaper way about it.

With that said ,who's to say that the test part wasn't just what Berk wanted. Just they couldn't do it on a mass production base. Either way I'm glad I'll own the system, even If I have to wait for it. I'll know there won't be any fittment problems.
