Modern Buddy

Just put this on today sounds amazing!!

Very nice pipe and sweet Buddy!

Sorry for the small images here are some bigger ones

Love the way it looks, excellent pictures, too.

I know I love mine and your camera work is belissimo!

A lot of aftermarket exhausts look a little TOO aftermarket to me. The Prima looks like it could be stock, only better! Sweet.

Thanks guys i cant get over how much better it sounds!!

I get super jealous when people take low backside pictures that include their exhaust, it makes the bike like super sporty!

I'm wondering if the new Series Italia 150s (yet to arrive in dealers, I think), will be sporting an "I" sticker on the rear fender.

this pic from 2strokebuzz seems to indicate it doesn't, although I don't know why it wouldn't- the San Tropez has an "F" on it.

I actually bought an "I" sticker for my Italia a while back but couldn't get it to stick very well on that back fender. The rough texture of it just wouldn't allow it.

great pics... that prima does look nice on there

hey Im new Here

What exactly are the advantages of the Prima other than sound?

Thanks,
Peter

Also, how long is the break in period (or how long did most of you actually wait) before you can put one of these on?

And what's the general consensus on voiding the warranty?

If you let the dealer do it, it doesnt void the warranty. Do it yourself, and boom, it's gone.

Most people wait a year or a few months, but I think the buddy itself is peppy enough without it, you dont really know this until you ride the bike without the pipe for a while.

I'd like to get one someday, but right now I like my bike and want to enjoy it the way it is, and save up some money

You can put a Prima on right away... no break-in neccessary. Personally, I'll wait till my stock exhaust rusts out, then get one. I don't have the extra money to blow on something I don't need. Looks GREAT tho, doesn't it?

Not sure about this... I think it voids the warranty no matter who installs it.

it really comes down to your dealer. genuine won't know to void your warranty unless your dealer tells them you have a pipe. if they installed it themselves, they might just let you slide. but i wouldn't know that because i didn't ask the sweet darling boys at urban moto about it.

it only voids that parts of your warranty that can be affected by installing the pipe (engine related). so if your horn stops working or your turn signals won't stop blinking you'll still be covered

Eco Moto put mine on and Genuine told them they can put the exhaust on and it wont void the warranty because there the number one dealer in america.
