Exhaust Sound: Titanium vs Carbon Fiber

[squincey]

I'm picking up a 2008 S2R1000 next Saturday and I'm about to order a full arrow exhaust for it. As the title states, and I tried to search, is there any significant difference in the systems regarding sound? Or if you are buying one or the other is it a 90% aesthetic decision.

Thanks in advance,

I'm not sure. I got the Ti mufflers. I can pretty much garontee (that's Texas for pretty darn sure) that with the baffles out any difference in sound will be impossible to hear.

With two identical bikes side by side there is a a slight difference in sound between the two canisters.

My last bike had no exhaust after the udder....so even with no baffles I think i'll be quieter than previously.

So i'm pretty much looking at an aesthetic decision then?

I think so. One other thing is that back when I got mine only the Ti system came with the extra baffles for making it quieter. If that important you might check on that.

Will do, they're not too expensive as a seperate purchase if I decide I want/need them? < $100?
