That's an RS exhaust, not an RX. Retails at $2700. ECM won't work on the RX, not to mention the RS has 2 of them. There are other options that are considerably cheaper and just as effective if not more so.

Btw, they finally processed my order from Feb 1. I actually called it in prior to that, but submitted the filled out pdf on the 1st.
Marrisa called me and my order will be processed this Thursday (2/25).
Welp everything I really wanted is sold out so I cancelled my order.
Yeah that's my order!! Chain slider on right. I was really hesitant about dropping that much, but apparently it's a good thing I did.Originally Posted by Hughlysses
Either we have a very few people hoarding parts or there simply wasn't that many available in spares, or they really are going to restart production. I'm invlinded to hope for the latter but a combination of the former seems more likely. I'm curious about the production of new parts.
The paperwork I saw from the auction said there was one lot that included these spare parts, and another lot that included completed bikes, incomplete bikes, and the parts needed to finish those. There was speculation on Badweb last night that there may be a LOT of 1190 parts somewhere that were in the pipeline to support production of a LOT of 1190's. So there well be more parts that can be made available, even if new production of parts doesn't re-start.
It sure would be interesting to know what's going on behind the scenes.
There was less than 1k produced and pushed out the door and maybe 1200 in total if you include the partially finished bikes at the factory if my info is correct. Seems like I had heard roughly 900, 1/3 of them went to Australia, 1/3 here in the US, the rest were spread around in Europe I think.
I do know they were targeting 3k in the 2nd year of production and then stepping up even more the next year, obviously that didn't happen. Where all those possible spares went is anybody's guess at this point.
I am inclined to think there are not that many out there. Case in point it would appear the entire inventory of radiators and oil coolers has been put on the market. That does not bode well for a company getting ready to re start production. I'm still in wait and see mode.
Well, we all have to be in wait and see mode for right now.
Note that Ed from AF1 posted that they were considering getting another order of radiator/oil cooler sets, so who knows how many there still are at the factory. Former EBR Program Manager Michael Richter (who currently lists his employer as Polaris) posted on an 1190 parts thread on Facebook and said something to the effect of "they're working on getting more parts, don't panic". That seems like a very good sign to me.
