Non-SV question

[Luckypants]

Since this is a non-SV technical (ish) question, posting here. Lots of folks on here have been around a lot of bikes, so collectively we might come up with some alternatives.

I want some cans for my Viffer (VFR 800 VTEC - the one with under seat exhausts) so it sounds like a bike and not a hair dryer.

So far we have Laser, Staintune, Leo Vince and Arrow.

any suggestions? Heard any meaty VFRs on your travels?

[Luckypants]

No suggestions? No replies? C'mon, it's noy like I've defected to the IL4 massive - at least it's a V4! She's having her first service right now....:eek:

Was gonna help you there until you dissed the IL4 massive.lol.Dunno why but Id probably go for arrow, check out the manafacturers websites they may have sound files of various bikes

Leo Vince, but I'm biased! :p

How about Two Brothers, these look quite cool

Not sure if it's the right model viffer tho...


Oh, just seen, they actually route the exhaust through only one of the pipes .... but they do an option where you can change the other pipe to storage !! Class :D Called the "Stash"

Sorry, cannot comment on specific models, but I have seen a lot of Viffers with awful looking pipes - I think they were Laser - nothing wrong with Laser per se but these just looked awful as an underseat - almost looked like they were for a different bike.

Mate of mine has a VFR750 (different exhausts I know) with Yoshi's on it.

Probably one of the best sounding bikes I've ever heard.

Quite nice, but Two Bros only route the gas thorugh the right hand can. The other is just for show, so seems a bit of a lash up. Very expensive to!

A mate of mine has a Yoshi on his VFR750 also. Very nice sound, and they are nice bikes as well. But if feel this may begin a derail...

[Luckypants]

OK enough with the VFR750's already! :twisted: Mine sounded great with a Remus too!

but I now have the VTEC 800 jobbie and the options are more limited since this needs pipework as well as cans....

fuel exhasuts, very reasonably priced, and build quality is miles better than my double the cost blueflame can.

I had a Micron on my (pre-VTEC) 800i - which not only sounded nice but unleashed about 9 more horses as well !! Don't know what you might expect from the VTEC though.

Bearing in mind that the OE ones are triangular (?) maybe the Yoshi route would be the way to go (even if it means taking out a mortgage).

One thing I do know is STAY AWAY from the MV Augusta F4 style 4 way exhaust by Blueflame - I knew someone who had them - they were dreadful - looked pretty good - sounded crap & screwed the fuelling right up !!
