It's a slip-on:

they are nice, but at twice the price as all the other slip-on's...I chose to go with a Yoshimura

zx_rider · 01-19-2006, 10:02 PM

I still think it's nice, but it is kinda pricey.....i'm thinking of gettin one form my zx soon but i'm still making up my mind....

its cool, but for performance, i'll end up goin w/ an akrapovic titanium system for mine, eventually

zx_rider · 01-20-2006, 09:11 AM

That's what i'm thinking for mine. Do you know how much though are?

if you were talkin to me, the titanium full system is about 1,600, on average from what i've seen so far.

Oooo, that's still kinda spendy, has anyone tryied to do a custom exhaust for our bikes?, like go to a muffler shop and get a exhaust bent? and then just get a slip on and call it a full exhaust?

rychrger72 · 01-24-2006, 05:53 PM

with the amount of research and technology that goes into these systems, i dont think i would just have a muffler shop bend something up, besides, the akrapovic evolution system is full titanium and weighs about 6 1/2 pounds.

zx_rider · 01-24-2006, 07:15 PM

I see your point. I guess an akrapovic slip-on is good enough for me, for starters. I know the system's only put out like an extra 5whp which people say is enough in order to feel it. How much HP i'm i looking at with a slip-on?

rychrger72 · 01-26-2006, 08:03 AM

dont know, maybe 1-3 more w/ pcIII, also keep in mind, u do not need to worry so much about horsepower numbers solely. that slip-on might only give you a ouple hp, but it will most certainly shave off some weight. if i remember correctly, the stock system for 05-06, weighs about 12 lbs, the titanium akra system weighs abou 6 lbs. half the weight on top of a couple ponies,

.

as far as i'm concerned, my bike makes plenty of power, more than i can fully use with my level of riding, at least til i get thru racing school, and get more track time under my belt. so for now, my first mods, besides appearance items, will be an Ohlins rear shock and pilot powers. something to consider, with the right suspension set-up and tires, the powerband will get to the ground the way its supposed to, and you will feel that as well.

zx_rider · 01-26-2006, 01:59 PM

Yea i'll probably wait to get through the MSF school before i do anything to my bike, and also i have a few nice twisty road's behind my house where i always practice on.....

I've got these pipes on my bike. They are BY FAR the best sounding pipe on the market right now. I get compliments on them wherever I go. The carbon-weave is definately worth the extra cost as well. The system is a very low rumble and almost cruiser like at idle, but when the revs get up this things screams! I highly recommend it.

a muffler shop that can mandrel bend can make you a system that would compete with aftermarket. exhaust is not as critical as people put into it. as long as it flows freely.

I thought about having my buddy who owns a shop use stainless and bend me a dual undertail system. ebay had a pair of small carbon fiber generic cannisters that were short and nice looking for a while. they are gone now.
