Whats going on with the exhaust?

Two, one, standard, aftermarket? Change more times than a women changes her mind.

Gorgeous bike. I'm quite tempted by one as a next bike actually, I prefer it over the TL1000R when it has that full fairing or a belly pan (the bigger curvey ones as opposed to the tiny sharp looking ones). Love that rear end with the hump on! Cool . Should have stayed with twin cans that's all Wink .

What's it like to live with? Things like tank range, comfort, etc?

i have got the carbon twin cans on it now done the pics arse about face Confused

whats it like to live with hmmm now thats a good one Confused

i love the bike for what i use it for which is a toy weekend blasts etc etc

but your body weight is right on the bars the pegs are sky high and the tank digs into your legs Confused but when your givving it large its comfortable as your heads down and your moving about a bit and you dont notice any of it

long distance its a pain and with a pillion its worse Confused

tanks range 120 miles max to fuel light which is the same as my old gsxr600 best i have had is 43mpg which is good and i wasnt taking it steady you cant on these bikes Laughing Laughing the mpg will be better after i have played with a few things Smile

overall its comfortable for blasting about on but not so if going any distance and your in the same position for a long time no good for commuting or round town work

god that makes the bike sound shite!! Confused

You want to be careful with carbon cans on V-Twins as it can vibrate the carbon apart on the exhaust. Or so i was told.

Lovely bike though, must sound awsome Thumbs Up
