Back to BIG

Decided it was time to replace the stubby I put on 2 years ago as a "temporary" fix :rolleyes: after an off

It was just too loud to be honest. I love the noise out in the country but in town it was a bit too much. So I ordered a new Fuel can monday night and it came today.

It's got a MUCH nicer sound than the stubby. A nice solid grumble, rather than the stubbies sharper snarl. Sounds much better at low revs. Although I do miss hearing it at higher speeds.

What do you think looks better?

your new one........ but that is because I don't like stubby cans ;-)

[barwel1992]

both, but strangely the big one looks nice (i dont like rocket launchers)

[nik_nunez]

not sure on the can, i do like the orange wheels and screen tho, nice

[the_lone_wolf]

What do you think looks better?
An SV without the orange tat?

;)

[metalhead19]

(i dont like rocket launchers)

But surely anything is better than the standard cannon it comes with?!
Do have to agree though that the new can is nice!

[ChrisSV]

I like both, but i prefer stubbies

lol usually dont like any can that resembles the stock cannon, but the angle makes it look quite nice

[metalhead19]

Yeh, tis true, it is still a good half a foot shorter then the normal cannon thankfully ;)

[barwel1992]

lmao yup :D

[Bluefish]

and probobly half the diameter. edit, and weight. lol

I love stubbies, but for some reason yours looked a little wrong. I think it was where the strap sits. Still, for a "temp" fix after a scrape, it was a fine job.

Long Fuel can looks better imho.

What brand was the stubby before it was stubbied? I've been thinking of stubbying my Fuel.

It was a Fuel! A Fuel oval titanium actually. I know what you mean about the strap. It should have been further down the can.

Hurrah. It looks like a half blind asian boy-racer was let loose with a can of orange paint.

what he said

[Richie]

big one looks better m8..
but that is only my thinking. :0)

[speedplay]

Big looks better, but then I'm not a fan of stubbies.

[mister c]

Looks a lot nicer. I stubbied one of my cans & just didnt like the sound. Prefer the deep grumble you get from a std sized can

i think the orange has been done tastefully

+1 and I definitely prefer a deep v-twin rumble.

[hindle8907]

i think the big one looks better,
i think stubbies look better on naked bikes tbh and long suite the faired bikes better.

:lol:

Difference is, KTM can pull it off...;)

True :wink:

[yorkie_chris]

KTMs pull who off?

[Stig]

I like the Stubby just the clamp should have been midway through the exhaust.

[cF^]

I think you should give ME the stubby =P. Is there such a thing as too noisy?

[DarrenSV650S]

The stubby has gone to a needy student who has already managed to loose part of it
