Performance exhaust wanted - SV650.org

25-08-09, 01:18 PM

Hi,

Been looking for a new exhaust but thought I'd see if anyone has one knocking around the garage they want shot of?

Im on a budget so even a new fuel or beowulf are out of the question.

West Midlands / Warwickshire area if poss. Complete with link pipe too if poss. Must be road legal, no race only cans, sorry!

Cheers

Then it won't be a Performance exhaust.
AFAIK You only get a performance increase from changing the header pipes to a complete system.

thanks for your comment...

from my experience you can experience slight performance gains (some manuf. claiming 8bhp or so) from adding a new can, benefiting truly with some time on a dyno afterwards tweaking the setup.

Im not really after performance gains, I just want to add a little more to the sound of the bike and enhance the cosmetics (any performance benefits are just a bonus).

Manufacturers claiming increase for a can is different to an actual increase.
On the SV, the gain is minimal, but there will be some gain in performance if not power from losing about 200 weight off the bike!

Not remotely possible on an SV650.

What you need is a budget exhaust; Fuel, CCC, Beowulf, Scorpion, etc...

Full Micron system - Zeta Headers, Oval Stainless Delta+ Can (removeable baffle).
Was fitted to K6 so should bolt straight on your K3
Am open to a sensible offer.

You'll accept less than the price of a new Fuel Can as per the OP
