Hey Boy’s,
I’m looking at replacing the stock pipes on my 660 Tenere which i’m picking up this Saturday. I’m considering the Barretts pipes & am wondering wether there is a benefit going the single pipe over the double aside from the weight saving?
If I go with the single pipe does the engine mapping need tweeking?

Cheers,

I think TB will have a report on a set of Barrett Pipes soon for a Tenere :whistle:

Stay tuned as I am sure he will be able to help out

Umm just so happens this afternoon I will be fitting a set of Barrett’s finest twin exhausts to the King’s Tenere. I am sure as it comes in 3 parts I will be able to weigh it all and work out the weight difference between the single and twin for you.

BTW twin is the the go as it looks the best :laugh:

More this evening

Ok so last night after work I set about fitting the King’s Tenere with a set of Barrett twin pipes

So we know the standard exhaust weighs

So it was given the flick quick smart, and then to weigh the Barrett twin cans and Y piece, 5.4 kilos

The two cans on their own go 4.4 kilos

And one can and the Y peice go 3.3 kilos

So working it out with the straight section for a single and a single can I reckon it would go 3 to 3.1 kilos for a Barrett single system

Thanks TB, it’s really a no brainer when it comes to the weight!! If I go the single pipe would I have to adjust the engine mapping?

I still reckon Barretts are the go and streets ahead on value for money against other brands
Plus Jason is a nice bloke

No mate, just fit and it ride it for 10 mins, it will probably pop and blow flames on over run etc but switch it off leave it ignition off for a few mins and ride it again and it will settle down

The system self learns as such, all happy days. It will pop on over run some but I like it some people don’t, you can get a blanking plate for the cold air induction for the pollution to reduce it but try it first
