thought this would get a bit more attention here, but basically fitted a Fuel exhaust to my R6 and made a quick sound clip

My thought exactly, when i had the standard can i was saying "Oh the standard can doesn't sound that bad im not too bothered about it"

Untill i saw the Fuel sale on and bought one! beautiful sound growls and screams :twisted: :twisted: excellent...


Oh did i mention i got a free mint bar with my exhaust!!! :D

:lol: :lol: So did I
Mine makes a funny sound when its coming down the revs though :roll:
Its not a popping, a bit quieter than that. But it doesn't sound healthy
Do you think it might need dyno'd?

Had Fuel exhausts an all my bikes thus far and they are all great. BUT the packing only lasts about 12 months, which I don't care about as it gets louder.

Hmm, nothing sounds quite as bad as a loud IL4... The only person who it sounds even remotely good to is the rider. Why torture your fellow man?

IL4's with a decent can sound bloody great ! You want to be riding a SS600 at 15k RPM through a tunnel, it sounds like an F1 car in Monaco....... The great thing about IL4's is that they don't wake up the neighbours on tick over - my Falco used to upset the guy next door every morning while it warmed up (when it started that is...)

The sound is different from a vee twin, but not any less awesome......

And F1 cars sound even worse than rubbish! The only vehicle that sounds good on an F1 track is the AMG Mercedes pace car...

Well there's no accounting for taste..

OK, you stick with your twin, and I'll stick with my 'Blade, I know which one I prefer the sound of. I haven't had any complaints from the SV guys on the ride outs I've been on with either my 'Blade or my GSXR (which sounded even better I may add...) In fact, I've had a number of compliments. There's nought wrong with the sound a decent IL4 with exhaust.
