I purchased a brand new in the box L/H side Staintune pipe for a Ducati ST4 off Ebay, total cost to me was $250.00 cdn including shipping and about 2 hours labour after work. Here are the video's for sound bites, one with the restrictor in and one without. You need to have proper speakers with lots of bass to get the full effect or a set of head phones or ear buds. This pipe has a very throaty, bassy big V8 sound with this engine. No more sneaking out of the camp ground at 6:00 AM un-noticed. Thats OK I dont get up that early anyhow. The signal light is being replace by one that wont be in the exhaust gas flow. Supposed to be 95 db restrictor in (which is legal here) and 98 db with it out. I am sure this will double my perceived HP.....lol

No I had to do a bit of cutting and welding, but pipe dia. was right and enough pipe there to do the job. Also much lighter than stock.

Not a fan personally. Sounds too much like a small block chevy with manifolds to straight pipes.

I think its the cross plane or 270 deg crank that gives it that small block V8 sound, I guess not everything can sound like a Duc with TERMIGNONI's.

Living in Australia I bought a StaneTune direct from the factory to suit the S10.

With the DB killer out it sounds like a Harley when under load.. like in climbing in the mountains.

A real kick arse sound.

My neighbuours tell me I am the oldest hoon (60) in our suburb as they hear me coming and going on the bike!

Sure sounds like something that would send the women and children scurrying with the baffle out ::26::. How does it run?
I have not ridden it yet as I live in the great white north and will have to wait another couple on months to try it out. I will leave the baffle in to protect the innocent...most of the time....

Hey Dave-

Sounds GREAT! Would you post some pictures of the areas where you did the welding and cutting? I notice you have silver panels on the front of the bike. Is that standard north of the border?

Thanks-
Rob

Are you too old of a hoon to know how post a soundclip of your exhuast? ;D Would like to hear it as I am strongly considering the Staintune for my bike. Thanks!

having test driven DAve's new pipe just last week, I can ::026:: the install and say it's awesome.
Too bad they didn't have any spare pipes, since I know a good welder ::014::
and my two brothers could go in the sale bin.

I will try to post some photos. The side covers I painted silver to look like the European bike

I was surprised that StainTune took the S10 pipe off of the market so soon after it's introduction. Perhaps they're still available in AUS. I happen to have a StainTune from my 2007 MG Norge. I'd guess that it should work as well. The pictures of the adaptation of the ST-4 to the Tenere will be of much interest. Thanks for the posts.
