It's as 'underseat' as you'd get on a K3+ I think isn't it

It might well be, but that still makes it less underseat than an underseat
I'd go for a Rene underseat, but thoes massive side pipes just look rotten IMHO... The rest of it looks great, and it's a better solution exhaust-wise than their other twins, but it just looks a bit funny.

It's those MASSIVE link pipes... They go up forever... If they had a bit of bend in I reckon they'd look a lot better- bit of an S instead of a huge straight pipe. It's a real shame. For that matter, if they did a full system high-level, I'd quite possibly have that, but the pipework on the existing systems is too much of a compromise for my tastes... The 2-2 Kenz system I had was the same, beautiful system and superbly made, but ultimately it was just less effective than the boring WRP single-can number.

Anyway, I did IMHO that, which I don't usually do, since anyone who fails to understand that these posts are all IMHO has something wrong with their brain
