Small Can (2008 R6/GSRX Style)
 
First off I'm a noob so go easy one me please. :smt021

Just wanted to know if there are any small exhaust systems that look somewhat like the 2008 R6's where the exhaust doesn't go past the rear axle and is kinda tucked to the bottom of the bike.

I really like the look and i think it would be great to not have this huge can that i have now.

BTW i'm working with a 2003 sv650s.

Edit: the only thing i found that i liked so far was the Two Brothers M2 Exhaust, but its still not one that is low profile.

I have a scorpion street extreme can on mine.The length of the can is 270mm long less than half the original and sound very nice too if you ask me!

The Scorpion is a good option- it's more a very small standard can than a GP-style, but it's nicely done and allegedly legal.

If you want to do a swap with another bike, R6 can is much easier than GSXR- the GSXR ones are all built for a side-exit pipe because of the big collector box. Trouble is, most are stupidly loud as the donor bikes have pre-silencers.

Stuff I've tried:

Micron Serpent for a 2006 R6. Looks, in my opinion, perfect. Very light. Easy to fit. Sounds like ass. Sold :smt009 I wish this one had worked, I loved it until I turned the key. The exhaust note was really flat and brackish, it reminded me of a bike with a fast misfire, like a carb icing SV- it was actually running fine though, just sounded rotten.

R6 Akrapovic- this one was just ridiculous, I never even rode the bike with it fitted. But Stu has/has had it on his pointy SV, I couldn't live with it though. It's almost unsilenced. Weighs as much as a bean can, because it's made much like one. Lovely to look at though, all titanium with hand welding.

Remus Powercone- this is more like it

Just a little bit louder than my race system. Heavier than a planet! Remus seem to make their exhausts out of lead. Sounded very nice. It was going to be a pain in the ass to fit, and I didn't really like the look for my own bike, but it strikes me as a good option.

The obligatory mic-clipping youtube vids:

The Remus really does sound good though, the Revolution grunt with a bit more open-pipe snarl.

Hmm that remus does not look too bad, my buddy has a remus on his car and it sounds great. Whats the name of the model of remus?

It's a Powercone. Quill do something very similiar, so do Scorpion for that matter... But with any of these you'll need to rig up a hanger and probably a link pipe too, which is all hassle- my Sure can was purely temporary :cool:
