After a long time I've finally got dual cans fitted to my 600 Hornet, haven't had a chance to go get photos but the usual video of exhausts can be found below.

Whole bike has undergone a nut and bolt rebuild too which still isn't completely finished.

Are the standard ones that high? They look to close to the plastics.

Standard has a heatshield around that makes it look closer than it really is. I chose for them to be that close as I think it looks better, they still need to be jiggled around a bit though, the tails not sitting quite right.

Manifold gasket sounds like its leaking?

Seen a few of these now, looks good, but sounds the same to me!

Was this the bike that was on here ages ago with loads and loads of corrosion?

If so I think you have done well Very Happy Thumbs Up

Even if it was dropped 1/4 inch. I think you will be melting in no time. Where the cans go into the link pipe in front of the shock. I would be taking a 1/2cm of to drop them a tad. It looks bloody nice and would be a shame if brown scorch marks were to start.

It might be not 100% sure going to check the manifold bolts are tight as its been bedding in.

I may, but the bike comes off the road end of this month due to insurance and uni, so I'll look then, no scorch marks so far, they don't get hot at all really. Paints only temporary too, its actually Filler Primer.

I don't know why it does that, more annoying for me as my right speaker is fucked! Must be an FCP setting I've cocked up.
