I have an '05 honda cbr 1000rr and am looking to upgrade the pipe.  It seems that two brothers is preferred on this bike.  Any suggestions?

Not sure where you are getting your information but I haven't heard anything good on the 2 bros. pipe.

 Are you wanting to do a slip-on or a full system?

For a slip-on I recommend the Jardine RT-1 Carbon.

Looking for both to get an idea.  Is there a reason you suggest this particular one.

Yes, I like the sound and performance gains not to mention the look of the pipe. It has a nickname, Pig Nose, because it looks like a pig's snout. Do I have this pipe? No, it runs about 600 bucks and I don't have the money currently. I have an 07 Repsol CBR1000RR with a stock pipe. I did a mod to the stock pipe that gives it 5 extra HP and makes it sound like an aftermarket pipe. It only cost about 45 dollars to do this mod also, so a lot cheaper than an aftermarket pipe.

What mod would that be? Nice bike by the way, wish I had the money at the time for it.

It is a mod to open up the baffle plates in the exhaust pipe. It is not for the faint of heart, as you have to drill out your pipe. There is a video on youtube. If you do a search on cheap cbr1000rr. It will bring up the video. Just watch it and do exactly as it shows you and it will be great. It make it much more deeper and throatier sounding. It also add 3 to 5 hp.
