I have one of their glaspacs, it is absolutely a waste of money. Motoasia is JC Whitless, ShadeTree, DK and related budget line. -WD

I'm looking, eventually, for a long pipe with a fishtail at or slightly beyond the back of the tire.

The cheapo JCW junker. Next time, I'm getting the pieces from the hot rod car aftermarket. Stainless steel, not much more expensive in the long run. -WD

It made the bike louder than my Savage with a stock unit on it. The quality is pretty cheap but it is better than nothing. Keep an eye out on e-bay, fishtailed exhausts show up all the time.

For £30 if they do turn out to be cheap and nasty I've not lost nothing.. Heres the link: http://www.bbbikeshop.co.uk/acatalog/Browse___Best___Buy_SILENCERS_Universal_...

Those look to be EXACTLY the same cheapo pieces as the Motasia/Emgo garbage. Only so many Taiwanese aftermarket suppliers...
Maybe they'll work for awhile. The packing is fairly low-grade glassfibre. The chrome is very thin. Be prepared to spend some extra time polishing and repacking. They'll look/sound alright IF you put in the extra time on them.
