Default ** NEW Scorpion Stubby Can **

I read about these in Wednesday MCN. I know alot of you think that MCN is rubbish, but I like it... and I like this can!
I asked Scorpion for a pic and they sent this. Not sure when it being released or how much it will cost, but I will have one on my SVS K5 as soon as!!

Oh yeah, its not road legal, but its not stupidly loud. Apparently its got a removable baffle to make it loud though......

Anyone else like it The can not MCN

I'm eagerly waiting for the release, hope to have one on my K-5 by the time the snow melts next spring. No MOT or inspection in Wyoming.

Hmmmmm looks too much like a Thermos flask if you ask me. I think whoever owns that bike should really have spent their hard-earned on some decent tyres instead.

Each to their own though.

Same as or similiar to the GSXR/R6 one I think. There's going to be more like that, I bet, Micron have started doing cans similiar to their R6/GSXR one for other bikes too, I'm sure others will.

Really doesn't suit the bike in my opinion. Curvy or pointy, it'll look horrible.

I was behind an R6 and he had a stubby like an open funnel - looked great. Are they standard or would he have put it on?

Akrapovic probably, though Laser, Racefit and Arrow do ones like icecream cones.

I like that style end cap, but I'm not convinced the overall can does it for me though. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder mind, so if it floats your boat go for it.
