Pics of my new GSX-R

Comically enough, I can't see my own pictures now I'm at work! It is, as Hovis said, black, and I'll see if I can get a photo uploaded on another image hoster. I used tinypic, normally use imageshack.us but they weren't working properly yesterday.

I've got a couple of photos here that I sent to myself for desktop purposes so I'll try and put one of those up with a different image hoster, give me a couple of mins...

Black ones are very very cool, my dads 750 is black Saw a blue and white Gixxer y'day in kingston, and it looks nice too, but in a differant way to the black (not better or worse, but differant - makes the bike look differant)

Same with the new R6 . Seems like they are getting tighter on noise control at a lot of trackdays. The stock can on mine is ~97db, which is right on the limit for some of the quiet saturday trackdays.

I really like the arrow exhausts:

Not the megaphone ones, but the titanium 3rd from the top. Been looking at them for my R6, but given the trackday thing, I don't think I can, unless I want to keep on swapping it.

Yes! Very cool bike, really lovely. I think they look better without the footpegs (dont they just unbolt easily?) but not to bad with them on (I'm used to seeing GSXR's without them)

Happy riding!

Matt

OK, rubbish cameraphone pics of my Laser exhaust. Let me know if you want any other views

Top down (at a slight angle)


Rear view


Front view


Side View


As I said earlier, there is a black cover that attaches to the main body of the silencer. However, due to some rubbish welding the captive nuts you bolt it to are in slightly the wrong position, so I need to attack it with a dremel at some point. But it doesn't look too bad without it (imo)

Looks good, although can't you cover up that bit stickking out at the bottom? (looks like the exhaust of a jet engine!)

Whats the sound like?

Yeah, there is a black cover to cover it up. See above as to why it's not on

The sound is nice, deeper and louder than the standard one (Which is load on it's own )

Thanks for those, they really help actually. I've always seen that side on photo and I think that the angle of them makes it look odd from that view point, which was the problem. Looking at them from the front/back/top they look really nice - I LOVE that look from the back, looks awesome!
Is it a lot louder? As you say the standard can is pretty loud, which is why I'm not convinced about changing just yet. I'm thinking though, that a road-legal can, baffled, might be the way to go. Hopefully not too much louder.

Matt, not sure on the footpegs - tbh I probably cba to even try they look a little out of place being silver though, but I think that painting or even powdercoating won't work and it'll just rub off.
