Found their website, and emailed them asking the question. Watch this space. :smt003

This is my old curvy SV. Loved the sound of these twin Ixils. To buy these would cost you about £1,200 new.

Are the downpipes linked in the middle before they reach the silencers?

Any idea who could make such a system? I'm not that clever, and unfortunately I don't know anyone locally who is!:(

My mate does custom fabrication on exhausts and has done a few SVs for racing :) planning to have my headers done at his so I will ask, see if there is a demand for a twin system - there probably is but no-one can afford them so everyone stays single lol

Where the foot brake is this is where they split. One as normal second goes below the swing arm(from what I remember) round and out the second pipe. Dones have as much pressure and the left can.

Plus its a bit of a nightmare with the routing of the pipes, which is why I think most fabricators stuck to the single sided system

Oh my god, this might be my old bike!!! :) I fitted the Ixils, clear taillight and the jack up plates, didn't have the twin headlights though. Did you buy it from a guy called Lewis? Did it come with rad cowls and a belly pan?

It was on a 51 plate had a belly pan but think this was black under the yellow. Or might have been red! Handle so well toque on this was mental. Went through a Diablo corsa in about 2,500 miles. Miss this bike.

Re: Twin exhaust for 650? Again.
 
I'm certain it's my old bike. I bought it, lowsided it in the wet, rebuilt it, came off again (broke my coccyx - ouch!), rebuilt it again and then sold it to my mate Lewis. He let it run too low on oil on the way to a dyno day and blew the engine. I put the new engine in, still have the old one in my mates garage as a parts donor haha. It was absolutely mint when I sold it to Lewis with the cans and stuff on it. I put ohlins springs in the front too. God I miss that bike! :( I'll dig out some pics from when I had it :)
