That'd look manky. Sell it on Ebay and buy a decent one lmao. Try looking for a specialist link pipe from somewhere like banditmania and have some figures if you're serious.

I think it'll look great. I was thinking of doing something like that a while back. Wouldn't you just need a joining clamp?

Northwind had one of those on his curvy for a time. Don't know if he still has. He's had about 200 different cans on it.

Beowulf looks better imho but if its free and you like it fit the bugger!

Personally i like the standard SV can also (tho aving a stubby er6f exhaust for 3yrs may explain that!).

Sidetrack here but has anybody noticed that rear tyre actually has GSXR stamped on it ?

If I was you I would measure the internal diameter of the can with some vernier calipers (for accuracy) or a Steel Rule (close enough) , and measure the outside diameter of your pipes on the bike where they connect underneath . For a can like that to look nice you would be better off having it fit from right underneath the bike . Just be aware that cans like that usually have a tab or a lug welded on them to attach to a footrest hanger or similar to give it a bit of stability and stop it getting ripped off in a right hand spill .
