What should I choose?
Ok, so i just got me a '99 SV650s (it's yellow, so carbon fiber would go best with it) and I'm looking for some good cans. I've done a bit of snooping around on this section of the forum (actually i've read about every post/thread)
My first two options are Yoshimura Tri-Oval TRS and Two-Brothers (the M5 canister!!!! - high mount) I'm obviouslly not looking for performance, just looks and (great) sound. This is how Two Bros. sounds like, by the way (the M2 canister): http://www.twobros.com/Cust_Service/..._SV650-TBR.wav But i'm not discarding other options. I've seen a lot of Renagade, Fuel, M4 cans on most SVs in the UK. Are the any good? I've also heard Leo Vince (crappy), Akrapovic (the same) and GPR. These last 3 haven't impressed me. Oh, and are there any dual-underseat exhaust out there? I've also seen a couple of threads, in which it said CF cans were not recommanded for twins. What's the deal?? Thanks in advance for your answers. Radu Last edited by Radu; 17-06-07 at 10:25 AM. |

Re: What should I choose?
Ok, thanks for the info!
The truth is I might be tempted by a dual (not necesserly underseat) but, to be honest, I never heard of Renegade or CCC. I intended to get my cans from my dealer from the US (they have about 15 brands, and of course, i have a big discount there) but i'm pretty sure they don't have the above mentioned brands in stock.(not even Ixil or Mivv) Should I reconsider Ebay? How much to these exhaust cost? (an aproximate value please) And if you have any pics, I would appreciate it. Google doesn't seem to give that many results. Cheers! |

How about these little puppies, i'd have these if i could afford it. They're called Laser 'X-treme'!! About £600 for full system though !!!!
Heres a link to their website, http://www.laserexhausts.com/en/modu...-exhausts.html

Re: What should I choose?
Those lasers look a bit long to me. Do they do a stubbier version?

Re: What should I choose?
No thats the only ones i have found, im sure they'd make them smaller for you if you asked. After all they are £600, i'd want them to be perfect. I like them but i can see what your saying. And i've just realised that they only do these for pointies, sorry Radu!!!!!
Just found a link on the tube with a video of them http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zd7BoulYYvU

Re: What should I choose?
They sound and look preety good (although i'm not such a big fan of titanium cans) There only one problem. From what i've read, this was a limited edition for the SV650s for just one year, it's named 'SV650s Laser Extreme'. This exhaust doesn't quite fit on my '99 model

No real problem with carbon cans on a twin so long as you buy decent quality and get them repacked every 5k miles or so.
Renegade make great quality cans with awesome sound - and they do underseat cans:-
