Best exhaust for a series 2
Right what do you lot think is the better exhaust for sound, build quality etc out of the mongoose, magnex, and scorpion, as i have a 4" magnex with flexi on my series 2 at the mo but have recently bought a mongoose and also been offered a scorpion, but have always wanted a mongoose on a series 2 have had plenty of scorpions and magnex's. But just wanted your lots opinions, cheers

I have mongoose 2.5" bore with 4" out and i think tune is ok but the sound is way too loud, i had to install extra silencer and i think its still too loud for my use. Mongoose is real boyracer choice! + i think the 4" out looks pretty funny. 2.5-3" out would be better.
I only choose my exhaust because i get it very very cheap in new.

they used to have a plaque on them but obviously its come off!! but yours is def the same as mine m8, have had a 3" magnex and now i have a 4" and i must say there is quite a difference imo, but just want to get this mongoose fitted but am not sure if i can fit the flexi of the magnex with the rest of the mongoose system??

I've found that life I needed.. It's HERE!!
Had a Scorpion on mine when I got it and it was too loud and knocked on the floor all the time. Sold that on ebay and bought a Mongoose 2.5" bore with 4" outward rolled pipe, definately the ONLY exhaust to have on a S2.

Not sure what exhaust Ive got on mine. think it might be a magnex full system, the previous owner had the tail pipe straight cut, also, im sure its had some baffles removed or something, as it is a fair bit louder than usual. Really nice warble sound up to about 3000 rpm then it goes into a sort of bassy rasp! (if that makes sense lol)
personally i do find it a bit loud at times... but my old exhaust just fell apart and it was only Ł10 on ebay!!. god bless spelling mistakes!

just checked the mongoose site and they do a outward rolled one,never used to,was always inward rolled on a 3"bore,the outward rolled is better lookin anyway
