What's your favourite bike rear end? I've always been partial to the classics- Duke 916, MV AugustaF4i... But I've suddenly had a conversion. There was a newish R1 parked at the petrol station yesterday with a pair of GForce large-bore cans on it, and it looked fantastic. Not gimicky or overdone, fitted the lines of the bike, but also very attractive in its own right. I'd gone a bit off underseats but you could say I';m back on them now

Close second would be the Benelli that's always parked at my work, the fans are a bit special (never seen them for very long though, the owner's rather slow

)

MV F4!! i did see a R6 at bassets pole last year with MV style blueflame pipes on that looked cool.

my vote's with the Benelli - I love the styling of those bikes! pity the dealer network, reliability, etc don't match the looks...

R1s definately do it for me, even the previous model with the LED brake light, oooooo

I am afraid that I will have to go with the MV also. The exit of those pipes mind me of a grand organ that you would find in a church. So beautifully created.

The 916 was a bit special when it came out also. So many after that have just been boring copies to my mind.

As an additional choice I love the way the exhausts finish quite a bit under the seat on the Ducati GP6.
