Exhaust System Recommendation
Which motorcycle exhaust do you guys run on your 650? I intend to change the old one and install a new one.

Re: Exhaust System Recommendation
I had a Blue Flame Evo on mine when I owned it and it sounded and looked good and was lighter than the stock one. But it was missing the baffle and a bit too loud. If you get one make sure it comes with a baffle so you have the choice to quieten it down.

Re: Exhaust System Recommendation
I've got a full Akrapovic system. The can is a bit beaten up and you have to repack it with fibreglass quite often, which is a PITA of drilling out stainless pop rivets, but it has a hella deep rumble. For the road I use a Quill can with mechanical baffle. It's ear-splitting if you take the baffle out, and basically no faster anyway.

Re: Exhaust System Recommendation
Does anyone tried the Black Widow 400 mm stainless exhaust? I'm quite thinking about getting it as it seems to be the cheapest road legal replacement exhaust and I'm kind of hoping it might be just a bit louder than OEM exhaust with baffle but not obnoxious like the 225 mm oval racing only Delkevic that came with my bike...

Re: Exhaust System Recommendation
You'll notice a better engine response with the longer can. The engine likes/needs back pressure which a stubby can just doesn't give.
Look at pipewerx too for options. |

Re: Exhaust System Recommendation
Length does increase back pressure but more of it means more restriction. The point of the length is like tuning an organ, it has to match the engine. Twins don't have screaming top end like fours so they suit longer exhaust systems.
