Default Berk UHV Titanium Dual

Love the sound of the Berk exhaust. Love titianium. Dislike a single exit(personal preference). Dislike being ripped off(doesn't everyone?)

With the knowledge that the Berk dual has long since been discontinued for the S2K I came across a site (http://intensepower.com/beteuhvdu57t.html) that indicates that they have this unicorn for sale to the common man. My question(s) - is this a legit site - has anyone had dealings with this site - or would I be better off continuing to scour forums & craigslist for a used example? TIA

It looks dodgy mate. If you click on company info they don't quote you a VAT number or Tax ID (or FDN how you call it over the pond I don't know). Two things you can do to check validity:
a) Use google maps and see if they 'exist'
b) Email them asking for company reg number (although you shouldn't be doing this on the first place!). Then go at you gov website
and check if they have been liquidised or something.

Best of luck, but beware looks very dodgy!

I highly doubt they have one of these sitting around. They have been discontinued for years and berk doesn't even have replacement parts for it. I had one of these exhausts and it was louder and droned more than the berk single. The titanium mufflers were nice though.

Website says they're local to me, I'll see if I can scope the place out and ask if they have it in stock (let me see the box, etc...) Though that phone number is a Phoenix one. BBB doesn't list them as negative, and they filed back in 2009.

He does not have it in stock. Just an oversight on the website.

Thank you all! The epitome of "If it seems to good to be true...", but you truly never know if you don't inquire.

Again, thank you! (The search continues!)

Honestly I would avoid this exhaust. I sold my used one very cheap due to it having some issues like a warped flange but the drone was unreal. There is much better dual exhausts out there. I have a berk single and love the quality and would like to see another dual from them but this is not a good exhaust.

If for whatever reason you want to double check something on that website, give 520-664-2338 a call. I didn't realize where the place was, but it's the same warehouse/shop that ES Tuned is in.
