you need to cut the pipe as all aftermarket slip ons are just the can and link pipe.

have a look at http://www.beowulfuk.com/ for some well made good priced cans.

Will cutting the pipe invalidate my warranty.

back in 2008 when i got a brand new sv650 i was told 'no your warranty will be fine' as you can buy an SV from a dealer with a can as an accessory.

i also put a GSXR front end on within the first 500 miles and i was also told that's fine as well but the work i had done was not covered.

as it happened the paint started pealing from my upper fairing and it was replaced under warranty without issue.
