Bad back pressure with cut exhaust?

[Eoin 600]

Hi

Im new here,ive a question!!! i have a 600 bandit which i am currently turning into a streetfighter,but my ideas mean i want to chop the exhaust below the foot peg and have no can!!

I know i will loose a bit of top end torque but would it do damage to the engine?

Also is there much hassel choppin and raisin the tail or fittin lets say an R1 tail??

Thanks

cutting the can and link pipe off will most likely require at least a rejetting, to get that correct you'll really want some dyno time...


to fit an R1 unit won't be too difficult for someone like me who has chopped and welded metals about before plus i have the tools to do it ...

buy your seat unit, remove your old one, take your time and examine what you are likely to need to do, bits of wood, string and tape will help you to see what needs doing

now we have "ugly", i think that is just a matter of taste ...

you may like the shiney spangley fancy bits that do nothing except terrify you every time there's a little damp, dirt or salt on the road when it's all shiney spangley stuff...

that bike i posted has "attitude" (fuck you kinda attitude ) which i like, there's nothing on there that's not required, there's several power improvements that can be seen easily, there's also handling improvements and it appears that it can be a everyday rider (the power may be a bit too much tho when it's really shitty) ....

i doubt we'd ever agree on what "makes" a fighter

Wow wase"nt expectin that!!!!

I can see were some of ye are comein from!
I had a few bikes before but never modified them! So am still a bit new to that side of things!!

I know streetfighter is a fully faired bike sports bike choped up but didnt know what way to say what i had in mind!!

I wanted to have a clean lookin back with no can,just wanted wheel,swing arm and tail look hence the cut exhaust hence why i asked!!

I wanted to change the tail end,front,bars,lights etc....

Thanks for some of the replys,and sorry for other i might have annoyed with my ignorance

I don't think anyone is saying that you cannot make a far better and more agressive muscle bike/streetbike out of a Suzuki Bandit to be fair. They have always attracted alot of aftermarket kit and personalisation and modification as they are an affordable naked bike that can be massively improved in every way with some cash spent on them.

i do agree with Marjay on the literal definition of a Streetfighter meaning a modified sports bike, or at least a factory produced machine that is heavily derived (engine/frame similar or the same) from a sportsbike in the manufacturers range.

having said that there are alot of very good naked bikes that are factory produced and have an agressive street bike style to them, but technically are not streetfighter's. Hornets, FZ1's, Z1000, CB1000R, B-King etc, are all naked high performance bikes that go and handle quite well and are much closer to sports bikes in handling terms than a sports tourer or commuter bike. Maybe the right term for these are Muscle bikes? If so then please make mine an MV Brutale 1078.
