Anyway, I didn't say they're bad - for what they are (a cheap newbie-friendly, reliable, low-end bike with faintly sporty styling), they're absolutely fine. I just find it baffling when people stick aftermarket exhausts on them as if it does anything worthwhile.
About as baffling as using a thou on the road?

A big, torquey, turbine-smooth road bike? Baffling indeed.

Told my insurance I had a Delkevic Stubby Slip-on. No increase in premium, just said they would note it down and that was it and these are the same insurers that added 50% onto my premium because I said my bike was restricted. I was going to say I'll just go elsewhere but they were still the cheapest so I stuck with them.

Og, I never bought my bike dreaming about insurance but I did love the idea of personalising it. Are aftermarket can's not just one way of doing that (whether its for performance or cosmetic looks)?

+1 on the Delkevic Stubby
My other half reconed it sounded like a lawn mower till I fitted mine.
