Aren't the Scorpion cans a bit expensive though and Akra's defo are, plus an Akra is too long in standard form.

Got to say, the Beowulf stubbys look and sound nice. Not sure how expensive they are though.

Scorpion are usually betweek £180 & £220 for a Street Extreme if you shop around. So slightly more expensive. However, the customer service is second to none, they re-revited and returned my can to me within 48hours. I was sent the wrong link pipe by a third party company......Scorpion just sent me the new correct one free of charge.

Back to the original poster......it depends completly on the look and sound you want.

If you want a loud, raucious, stubby.....then I would say Scorpion Street Extreme.
If you want a tri evo bit of bling bling.......then I would say Blue Flame Tri Evo.
If you want something that is slightly more traditional shape wise, but with good tones, then beowulf / fuel etc are all par the course. I would suggest you choose your budget to begin with, then if you want a loud bark or deathly growl......then finally the shape.

That still doesn't answer your question....as there is no definative answer.

I've got a viper can on mine. I think it sounds great! Got it from ebay for £21! not a mark on it. Didn't come with a baffle but got one of these http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/DB-KILLER-BAFF...item23051a97f3
Sailed through MOT no problem at the dealers.
There's the low budget option!

Guy where I used to work had a GSX1400 with twin ART cans. I worked on the 5th floor and the windows even up there used to rattle when he fired it up.

Beowulf stubby is around £150 - £165, depending on material used.
Thats what it looks like on mine.
Nice growly rumble.
I would prefer to stubby it a bit more, needs to be louder

I had one on the SV when I went to Spain. We were riding through a village and the local dog was trying to bite all the bike tyres as they rode through. Then I came through and it ran like the devil was chasing it.
