Default Re: Best Exhaust for a pointy?

I have a Scorpion on my Z750 - that sounds good, got it second-hand from ebay for about £100

I have a Freeflow-Systems can on my SV, also sounds good, cost about £100 from ebay, but was new - rumours have it that Freeflow-Systems are Beowulf selling unbranded to the cheap end of the market.

Don't really see the point, beyond bragging-rights of spending more than about that.

Up to you I guess.
That's a great theory if i was planning to race it, but pipes alone don't build you torque/HP curve, you'd need a decent airfilter and a fueler of some description to make that theory work.

I do like the 'FUEL' pipes and the cost is very attractive especially recieving the discount from this forum, I really am not to fussed about HP otherwise I would've bought another Bandit.

With twins, to me it's about fun, torque and sound!

Thanks to everyone for their opinions!

Keep 'em coming!

Bob

Depends on your budget, but if I was buying again now. I'd be buying something made by Remus. I think for the money though the Fuel can you are looking at is hard to beat IMHO.

Hmmmm... If there were directly comparable figures this might be worthwhile.

But it isn't.

I know everyone says that adding a slip on can doesn't increase hp.

But isn't the cat on the SV near the exhaust can, I've got a fuel exhaust can on my bike, and I've taken it off (OMG that was loud!) and I couldn't see a cat anywhere in the pipe. So I think it was removed when the previous owner put the fuel one on.

So wouldn't remapping it make a noticeable difference, as it is now cat free?

I've also got a K&N air filter if that makes a difference.

No additional power?

I beg to differ.
