Default Which exhaust? K8.

Hi guys. Was wondering if you could help me find a good exhaust for my k8. Whats the best exhaust in your opinion that wont break the bank too much? Been looking at delkevic, but heard mixed things! Your help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Andy!

I've got a Beowulf Warrior. It suits the pointy shape, is made well and sounds lovely.

+1 for this, had the can on my k9. The tri-oval shape really does suit the pointy. Although just consider your riding if you go for the Matt black as I did. Due to all year every day use the paint suffered from chips etc.

I now have a fuel micro mini in brushed stainless on my L0, again looks nice and the sound is good too. Added bonus with the fuel cans is the org discount if it is continuing this year.

Ok thank you very much. I do ride day in, day out so the winter is an issue for me. Is there any point going for scorpion cans and the other mainstream brands or is it a case of paying for the name?

Personal preference and budget really. I have seen an sv with a really nice looking and sounding akropovic but think it was at least a hundred more if not more than the fuel.

You will also pay for the finish, basic stainless will be cheapest then go up from there.

You can get the warrior in stainless and I think they still do a lifetime warranty

If you want to make people riding behind you deaf then go for the Dan Moto carbon GP. Or any of the Beowulf cans. Nice low tone sound sweet as a nut

Someone's insurance bought me a Scorpion Red Parallel Serkut in carbon fibre.
Gives me a headache with the baffle out. Pops nicely on the over run (but not too loudly) with it in. Still makes me smile on the commute every morning.

I was looking at the serket as they had one in my local bike shop. But thats what made me wonder wether it was a case of the name bumping the price up or if it really was that good. My only preference is, id like it to be legal. I dont want to give the local fuzz an excuse!
