Which CCC?
 
Hi all, I've been looking at the CCC cans and I'm very much interested. couple of questions though. How loud are they? I had a Harley Sportster with screamin' Eagle pipes and I wouldn't the XT to be any louder. Also is there much difference between the titanium and stainless apart from price?

THANKS.

My advice is to keep away from ccc. They used to have good products but many people are having problems with them (missing clamps, missing link pipes, extremely long delivery times,......)

Ive a set of CCC S/S full length round cans and they are loud even with the baffles in and with them out can only be compared to a Dakar race bike.

I got mine before the change in management so they where delivered in time but still i got the wrong clamps but 2 days and the corect ones where sent out.

Great cans really in my opinion. The difference in S/S and titanium is price as you say but also weight.

The problems people have are with oval cans are they dont seem to sit square and when the suspension near bottoms out the rear tyre rubs on the clamps/exhaust.

The new problems as stated are with deliveries, getting the order correct, wrong this that and other and missing bits.

This post has been moved in the Exhausts section as it was posted in the private XT Supporter area where regular members could not see it. I think this subject is for everyone's attention and should be in the public area.

Thanks for understanding.

Hey Capt quite right!
Thanks for the info folks. These delivery issues have me worried. I've checked the photos I love the pipes and for the money you can,t beat them but a cheaper product is no excuse for poor service.

Good luck :toothy9:

I think I have said it a few times, but I'll say it again so we all understand what is going on.

Up until CCC was owned by Simon Cope, we enjoyed a fantastic service, from a very professional point of view Simon Cope never, and I mean NEVER disappointed anyone who purchased his cans. Delivery times were shockingly fast (within UK of course we are talking next day, bang on target)

But not just that, we all know that sometimes things can go wrong, and a few clamps have know to have snapped or were the wrong size, on these occasions Simon would send new sets free of charge with the same speed. We've had a member that (we believe he didn't know how to fit these properly, namely ManicMic) managed to snap 3 or 4 clamps and all the times Simon sent him a new set.

Finally Simon never sent his cans out without all the correct number of clamps. Although of late Simon had a problem with the link manufacturers and experienced some delay in receiving these, we know it was never his fault.

Unfortunately since the take over from Simon Cope to the new owner, things have taken a different turn, clamps had been missing, deliveries were delayed, specially abroad, and now he is not replacing a lost set which he sold to Mithyx and he is getting pretty rough with him in his email exchanges.

Now I only ever allow sponsoring of products in here when I am happy that the company is able to keep up reputation, from the moment I met the new ower I had a gut feeling that I wouldn't get on with him, and that things were going to change.

I need to let you also know that, while me and Simon Cope could be considered as friends, because we have known each other from day one of this forum, we had this gentleman's agreement that I wouldn't ask him for any money in return for the publicity and the sponsoring of the cans provided he kept the standards that he did with our members, I was happy, and on top of that Simon looked after me quite nicely by letting me have a couple of set of new cans, which happened on 2 occasions. Myself not being greedy I then passed on the other cans to my closest associates here, Kev and Miguel.

Now things were different I wasn't that friendly with the new owner and the standard have dropped so I have decided to wash my hands of him and CCC, and while I declare the cans are still as good as they used to be, the after sale service isn't, hence I could not accept that our members were treated unfairly and I wish CCC all the best for the future but the present is not looking good for a cooperation with us, which is why we don't sponsor them anymore.

Those who continue to buy from CCC must understand that I am not speaking with the new owner anymore and if you have a problem with him I can't help you resolving it anymore as I was able in the past.

Like Miguel said good luck :warning1:

Hey Capt. Thanks for the heads up. It must be tough for your friend to see the companys reputation take battering. Damn shame. I think someone else will be getting my money.
