Put this on a basically stock Ciao (fit was ok, nothing a hammer couldn't fix), added about 7mph to the top speed, looks great, sounds good, didn't seem to lose any low end versus the stock pipe, and won the amateur class at the thunderdrome!!!

The pipe is totally rad for the cash! The finish is made of plastic wrap, but hey black engine paint is like $5. A litte tricky to mount, but none the less a great bang for your buck.

Adds a lot of top end, does not really kick in till the mid range rpms. mine fit fine. I think with some stronger clutch springs i should get much better puckup...

Modded Ciao went from 30mph with stock muffler to 38mph with this pipe. From a dead start, a spin on the pedals helps get it rolling faster. Maybe drilling the clutch weights will help,
Had to force bend it a couple of times using a rubber pad on the pressure point to get all 3 mounting points aligned. Needed to prevent excessive side pressure on the cylinder exhaust tube.
After the first long run, the shiny clearcoat from the exhaust port back to the first bend bubbled & fried badly. The tube looked kinda like burnt corn on the cob, black & bubbly. Nice chrome tip on the silencer.
Other than the non heat resistant clearcoat and the alignment, it's a great pipe! I can probably get more speed once the broken top piston ring is replaced.

For some reason a lot of people turn their noses up at the tecno circuit, perhaps because it's a little kinky around the pedal sprocket, perhaps because they only think good things cost lotsa money, or perhaps they want the neon Simonini stickers, but for stock or low-rpm applications, this pipe has the goods.
The metal is beefy, the welds are solid, it comes with the m7-m6 coupler nut to bolt it right onto your head, the tone is very mild, and the performance is good. Not going to be the hi-rpm ripper that your wet dreams are made of, but on a stock (50cc, ported) bike it pulls all the way up to about 9k and hits around 3. Probably would be all around lower with a kit.
The clear coating is made out of scotch-tape and snot, or something equally lousy, but you probably wanted to repaint it black anyhow... right?
