I am looking to switch from my race pipe to the carbon fiber Jardine slip-on. I was curious to how well built the CF pipe is? From my experience, CF pipes tend to be very fragile and fall apart quickly. Anyone have one with a good amount of miles on it? Does it sound any different than the aluminum or titanium pipes? Thanks!

If you have already done your research on the ups and downs of a Jardine pipe and only want to know the difference in the CF pipe, I can't help you there. If you haven't researched Jardine, use the Badweb search utility and you will find lots-o-info. Good and bad (I lean towards bad).

I just installed mine in place of my al. jardine. the carbon fiber seems well built but comes with a disclaimer sticker right on it saying it is race use only and the carbon fiber has no implied warranty. so we'll see how it holds.
