Stubby the cans? or leave them.

[lllN30lll]

I think I made a poll when i was gonna stubby the gixxer can. and I went ahead and did it.

now, i've got the R1 i'm disgusted at how quiet these Scorpion cans are especially for a price tag of £500.


now, Do I stubby them, or leave them as is.

cheers for voting.

Normal
(ignore the fanny bands, this is when i picked it up from the dealers )

Not a big fan of stubbies myself although some do look good.

Sell the Scorpions and buy something else.

Look on the BOS website for DB Makers

hmm i dont know about stubbing them, They look out o place. I think maybe get some different ones u can stubbie, And then cut them back abit, not as far as them others.

I wouldn't do it to my bike( too much hassle, extra cop factor etc.), but I think it can look quite good.

I wouldn't do it on your model. They look decent on certain bikes but on your underseat model they'd look daft.

i wouldn t stubby them as much as has been done on the pics of the other 2 bikes but i would shorten them by about 2"

Stubbied underseat cans make the seat unit look too long and thin. Just try and find some other way of making them louder.

I'd stubby them so they are just flush with the tail, not too short, but not peering out.

Take some wadding out if you want 'em louder, although I honestly can't see why you'd want to.

It's too close to tell. Stubby just one of them.

[Dom_]

Have you de-catted it?

Flog the scorpions and get a better set of cans.

Vote for stubby here, I love my stubby cans on my SV.

I voted stubby, they look good how they are but louder is always better.

20-stubby

[tristan]

Stubby is better imo too

21 yes
19 no

[JakeyR]

I voted stubby, but don't stubby them to the extent of the ones in the pics, shorten em about 3/4 inches.

I'd say do it.

[craigs23]

Looks ridiculous.

Atleast the standard-sized cans look as if they follow the lines of the fairing, stubbies on that R1 just look wrong.
