Default Scorpion Street Extreme

Hi everyone. Im new to this site, infact just passed my bike test 2 weeks ago and have a new standard Black SV650 Sport in the garage.
ive done 500 miles so far and think its MINT. The guys at the Suzuki Centre advised me against the gixer for a first bike and to be honest I think they were right as ive already frightened myself on th SV !
Anyway, Ive got the tail tidy to fit, ( doing that in the morning ) and am about to order an end can. Im thinking of going for the Scorpion Street Extreme in carbon. Ive done as much research as I can and think the short pipe looks mint and from what Ive heard on you tube it has a throaty roar aswell, any advice or pointers would be greatly appreciated !
Thanks

it's loud and raspy, not loud and rumbly /booming like a longer can

i had a street extreme and swapped it for a beowulf as i preferred the rumble to the rasp if you get what i mean

Nice bike mate.
Pipe looks good on Blue bike, mines black ( im gonna post a picture of it when ive done some mods ).
Ive seen a bike today with white lenses on it, think it was a bandit, the guy at my local dealer said they are about £8 each. Ive also got some red wheel stripes and a black red tax disc holder.
I brought home a front mudgaurd extension today to try up against the bike, the standard item is very short and altough i intend to be a fair weather biker the rides ive had so far have kicked up a fair bit of dirt into the fairing etc, i think this would help and as my bike is black it will be fairly discreet !
Ive also ordered a hugger, again in blck !

Scorpion street extreme looks awesome. Best bet is to have a look around or see if you can find someoe close to you with one so you can hear it

Hi,

I see you've got a Beowulf on your bike? So you reccommend them? how easy is it to fit?

i've got no complaints with mine, i'd already cut the original when i fitted the street extreme before it and that's the most time consuming / difficult part by far
