Re: New exhaust can without using a link pipe
I think it is one of the cheap Chinese jobs.
I have left the baffle in, it's removable, and it sounds really good. It's pretty good quality really and I like the look of it. Not done anything with jetting, it's fine the way it is. I'll upload another quick video I did the other day in a bit. Last edited by Skivvie T; 16-08-17 at 04:48 PM. |

Re: New exhaust can without using a link pipe
Not a bad fix mate, only potential issue I can think of with this, rather than a link pipe, is the seal.
You may notice a bit more coking around the joint with the shorter connection so a bit more cleaning required Looks like a nice bit of kit though, how much it set you back? Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Re: New exhaust can without using a link pipe
Re insurance: I declared my mods (exhaust,double bubble,hugger) with no premium hike, but declaring brake hoses was substantially dearer. I'm not sure it's worth taking a chance
From memory these copy Akrapovic's are legal with baffle in Edit: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SV650-S-03...YAAOSw~AVYqtDB Last edited by Chris_SVS; 16-08-17 at 06:50 PM. |

Re: New exhaust can without using a link pipe
To the OP.Would it be possible using your method to re-use the stock exhaust if I chose to return to stock?

Re: New exhaust can without using a link pipe
I paid £65 for the exhaust and £13.99 for the connector.
If you cut a couple of inches away from the standard can you can re use your standard can at MOT time with the connector. The guy I take my bikes to for an MOT has never really tested any of my bikes properly, he just has a chat whilst his computer timer times out. |
