Have a look here:

too bad I have a curvy...
Generally speaking does a pointy full exhaust(even the stock one) fit onto a curvy?I mean are the curvatures different?

I think it would need to be modified.

We had an Akrapovic on our Curvy. Just look out for one on Ebay or through the net. They do one just for the curvy. You might want to stubby the can though as it is a bit long IMO.

There's got to be a good chance it'll physically fit, since the pointy exhausts generally have more clearance not less. But you can't guarantee that of course, you might hit a frame spar or similiar. And it's still too expensive for Akra, IMO, just because they have the capacity to make the best exhausts in the world doesn't mean they've ever bothered to do that for the SV
