Wonder what the reserve is. I've already risked divorce on bling and necessary parts this spring.

It's been there since the second without a bid... Are people finally getting wise to this auction thing? I'm surprised no one is bidding on it. His buy it now price is about right - these are unobtanium/nla. Be interesting to see what it goes for - Scott...

Scott, just do it.
It changes your bike completely.

Well, I was the high bidder for about an hour. We're headed over to Quinns Hot Springs ( http://quinnshotsprings.com/ ) to spend the night, eat and soak so I won't be able to track this. What is exactly the difference, more power, more noise?

Adds a perceived (meaning I have not dynoed it) 5-7hp and a really nice throaty growl to the sewing machine sound of stock. Really adds punch to the low end.
It is louder, but not by much and nowhere near obnoxious.
Another good thing is that it will never lose value. You can sell it in 3-5 years for what you paid.

Thanks Dave, I'll have to keep my eye out for one. The guy that out bid me decided not to mess around with any more bids a punched the buy it now button. Still a good deal I suppose but I was hoping to get it for $100.

buy it now isn't supposed to work after anyone has bid on the item...

I think I got mine from MaxMoto - can't remember the guy's name, but I can remember him saying, with a very thick accent, "it's not louder, it's just deeper."
I'm sure these won't go down in price - I was hoping you'd get it for $100.00, too.

No, it works until the price goes by the "buy it now" price.

Sorry, I just couldn't resist using the "Buy It Now" after all the comments I read here about how much I would like the Remus over stock! No hard feelings?

Pictures of the newly acquired and mounted system will need to be posted once it is in your possession. You did know that is a requirement of this forum, right?
BTW, keep your hands away from the cages- some have lost limbs here.

Welcome Dagcakes, I see that's your first post!
All's fair on an EBay auction.
You'll have to post some pics and introduce yourself.
I posted that listing here so that one of our K11OG'ers would have a shot at it. Glad its in the family!

Hey - welcome to K11OG!
That's not a bad price, but I think I would have let the auction run. 
Oh, there are hard feelings all over the forum - but you get used to that...

You know, I had a FEELING someone from here bought it.
Hey man no apologies needed.
500 bucks for a Ti Remus is still a great price!
Welcome!

Yea, no hard feelings cause you guys didn't have a bid on it. 
Just kidding, welcome and no more lurking.

Here it is mounted on my brick. Now has a deep rumbling exhaust note, and in my limited test ride after installation, seems to have more get up and go throughout the powerband. . . .

That looks nice! Nice Brick, also. Do you like the sound? I'm trying to imagine a 1100 "rumble."
