if somone could tell me a name and a location to buy a really nice sounding one . Cheap too if possible. that would be great
im liking the look of the carbon cone ends.

I had a stainless steel fuel can on mine (google Fuel Exhausts). Only £130, removable baffle and link pipe). Sounded brilliant and well made. Depends how much you want or have to spend though. Its been said before but any aftermarket can makes it sound awesome

Yeh I've been told to make sure you have your keys close when near me, great rep Nuneaton has.

Its alright I've only been riding 4 weeks

Where abouts in Cov are you?

ill deffo wonna see what everyone else is doing to these

between 0-250 quids most ill spend really. dont wonna go over the top and end up with something that sounds ****e

longford. probably the worst place to have a bike lol
tbh mate we both live in the **** end of the uk

They'll all sound good mate. I got Quill Titanium cans for the thou off ebay for £80 and they sound mint

to be honest you could prolly buy an unbranded generic can off ebay and it'd sound mint. I had a beowulf stubby length oval can on mine, think it was £140, sounded great

The catalytic convertor is in the stock can, so when you chop it off and fit an aftermarket can, you're basically giving your engine a giant loudspeaker to shout through where there was once a muzzle you'll see what we're on about if you fire the sv up with no can at all

Are you still going on about that stumpy? You should get your bloody indicators checked you mug (maybe even consider using them)... And anywho, weren't you pulling me over to tell me about your ham fisted throttle control & how you'd just done a "whacky powerslide" or summink? Muppet!

So anyway moojuice, we're all good mates here & davepreston has never called me fat

i see theres been an incident with you two fellas
speaking of indicators on the way to prop my licence off to honda a guy realy pulled infront of me as i was hacking traffic. nearly sh*t myself

i stopped and back peddled to his window, word where exchanged

so general tips so far:

just get used to the bike before anything.
get a cheap can cus theyll all sound good.
get a gixxer front
break pads
tailtidy
and ofcours FAVE FUN!
