probably as a last ditch attempt to make a curvy more appealable.

Looks horrid.

what if it rains.
The very exit of the pipe is angled more sideways than the rest.

Well I have never seen an SV with a can fitted like that before. It's unique I guess.

Probably got it cheap from another make of bike....

As TSM said, I think there may be some cornering 'issues' on right handers! :shock: :lol:

I've seen it done with a small stubby can and it looked good. But that one is too long, too low down and at too steep an angle IMO

No I'm all about the high levels and underseats (although maybe not on the sv)

whats wrong with Hi levels on SVs? I think mines is rather spiffing:p, and its so hi level, it only just clears the subframe:mrgreen:

I could still take a pillion if i felt like it, as I have some spacers made by the previous owner and somwhere the pegs. But I never will take a pillion....thats my excuse;)

I didn't even notice the can at first! I just saw yellow and thought the thread was about the colour! ;)

No I meant underseat exhausts (like on the zx6r's:smt008) might not suit the sv. I've got a high level on mine...well will have when it's back on.

Yes and the bike still isn't right after the unexpected impact, which will involve me working outside in the cold:smt072

Maybe the owner was going for something similar to what the ducati guys were after with the Desmosedici, with the angled exhaust to increase downforce?


...maybe not :P

I don't get why they altered the down pipes, there was no need too to run with that ridiculous can. The whole exhaust looks stupid...

Having stared at this for a while, it looks a little photo-shopped....

Size isn't everything you know!














Or so I've been told.

Hmmmm bit wierd.. maybe it's been photoshopped as DD suggested and is just a joke to see if anyone would actually phone about it :lol:

It would be fair to say of the two bikes in my garage, the GSXR is probably the least historically interesting. The other one, otoh...
