Hi-level / Hi-angle exhausts??

[Couger]

Hiya all,

I'm looking at getting a new exhaust for my R6, and I would really like something which has the angled look of the race bikes, in particular the Red Pirahna BSS R6.

Ive noticed loads of high level options like the Blue Flame can, however I've kinda of gone off these. I was wondering if to achieve the high angle but not high level (if you get what I mean ) look of a race bike, you have to opt for a full system?

Could someone clear this up for me, or recommend a good option for a 2000 R6 in blue.

Cheers,
Cougs.

ERM Try Wolf racing. I have a wolf road legal carbon can and its the best quality can I've seen. Rivetless design etc.

O/T for a second. I notice you have a VFR750 thats knackered.
You don't wanna buy a haynes manual do you?

Hey Couger

Have a look at this thread-

https://pub114.ezboard.com/fyamahar6messagenetmodifications.showMessage?topicID=6611.topic

It's 12 pages long, but should have about every possible R6 pipe in it.

Cheers Dusty,

Marjay, Ive already got one thanks, and have managed to make the VFR non nackered now!

Dusty, you had an Akra on your R6 didnt you, what are they like in terms of sound and styling?

You're only saying its the best because you have one.

Just like IMHO Art is the best

[stevo as b4]

Yeah but with big name systems your really paying for that name more than say the quality of the materials used and the construction. IXIL make a fair few race bike zorsts, but they arn't so popular, as some of the other race systems, but that doesnt mean they arn't so good. IMHO pipes like Yoishimura which are big big bucks, are probably not any better designed and made as some of the less popular brands, but they get away with charging alot more for them, because everyone would rarther have a Yoshimura badge on their can, more as a fashion statement than anything else.

[Couger]

Cheers Dusty, a guy is interested in selling me an Akra end can for £150 which is why I ask, im glad they are not mega loud as I don't want anything too mad. If I go for it could I upgrade it to a full system later, or would I have to get a full system with another end can included? Being dumb I know nothing!

Stevo, its like everything, my DVD player cost £199, exactly the same as a Sony one but a different badge, the Sony one was £500! I do really like Akrapovic though.

Cheers
Cougs.

Hey Goose, yeah I dunno if I like the Devil system, bit radical for me. With regards to the bike, dunno how it is yet! Because I've been away dad had to pick it up, and its having its 33bhp kit put in at the mo, hoping it will be done before end of this Sunday, before I get on the lovely grey war canoe we call Ocean! But yeah, the RN is still ace!

TBH, I doubt the power gains from a race can of whatever make brand or whatever will actually ever make any difference to power and performance on the roads. It does however make a nice noise

[Dusty]

[Doddmaster]

High-level exhausts don't look right unless you have one on each side.
In my opinion a normal level can looks better.

[zaknafien]

Have to agree with dodd, high level cans just dont work right unless you have one each side.

All bikes should have twin cans made compulsory because of the superior gains in 'look factor'

Oh yeah so we can pay even more for our cans cuz we need 2!!! Maybe not.
We could just follow the trend for underseat systems

I reckon underseat systems on bikes which werent originally designed for them look odd and a bit gay, a lot of hassle and cost for something which isnt really rare anymore.

Underseat systems in my honest opinion look completely pants!
High level ones look alright but force you to take the passenger footpegs off on smaller bikes like the RS250, is it the same with big bikes?
