M4 are good for power on modified motors. Leo vince are also very good if you're not tuning the knackers off it.

I like the central feel to an under seat can, and that its less likely to die in a spill, because ive stripped most of the lights and indys etc im going to almost completely cut off the battery box leaving a little shelf for a slimline battery for the starter.
there is no room for the pipes to come up between the shock and the swing arm so i am going to have to potentialy get a new link pipe fabricated to go up around the swing arm, and under.. like the ixils.. maybe i could just buy an ixil link pipe?

can anyone think of a reason why this wont work or cannot be done??

As Jorge at renegade always used to say, Anything is possible, it depends on your wallet, and how much you want to cut off. Zorstec im sure will sort you out.

Re: is a true underseat possible on my Racer?

Well zorstec will certainly effect the weight distribution..................if you dont mind plenty of weight on rear wheel!!!!

Get a Hindle system, then go and see mark at MHP if you want underseat, most of the SDC bikes run underseat, if your gonna pay for it its worth gaining some hp.

Twin pipe system wont work on an sv (can per cyl) without a balance pipe, which again isn't possible when youve got one pipe out the seat and the other by the footrest.

Re: is a true underseat possible on my Racer?

The neatest underseat i've seen was tlr709's on svrider.com - that bike is sooo sweet. :cool:

But it uses a single swinger and I guess regs wont allow you to do that?

Dunno, it wouldn't be too hard to drop the balance pipe down through the swingarm, but it would require some faffing with diameters to get the volumes right.

Massive weight penalty with single siders, which defeats the object!

All comes back to the arguement, do you want a show bike or a race bike?

Zorstec do some lovely work for show bikes...

Re: is a true underseat possible on my Racer?

im just sticking with a stubby can most likely high level and bedone with it. the rest can goon rearsets and fairings etc.. which is more important than a poxy underseat!

thanks for the help folks! :)

What did you go for dude?

Re: is a true underseat possible on my Racer?

Same as before, just got the link pipes changed over with Ady, my Viper 8 inch stubby with no packing just high level now, may have toned it down a bit I think :)
