    Hi my guess it should of been done by now, but I replaced my exhaust from down pipes after finding out the cat converter weighed in about 8kg it need to go plus it restricts the power out...needed a straight though system.

    Yamaha R6 slip-on fitted with extra pipe as well and man it sounds nice @ idle its 93 decibel's....sounds really deep when revving engine, ive had flames out of pipes all ready which is pretty cool at night.....not been stopped by police yet regarding this as Harleys Davidsons are louder

    Bike looks good. Will be interesting to see how the minimalist can affects performance and fuel injection function.

    How is it that you are parked on an airport apron?

    Hi i've found this exhaust has made the bike more responsive as for injection system and air filters...disconnect battery for 5mins replace terminals and start engine, don't touch throttle for 3 mins @ idle turn engine off and start again. doing this resets ECU brain etc...as for bike on airport I work at one and asked to bring my bike next to plane to take pictures....(was so tempting to take a ride along the runway but think I would get in trouble for that)

    Not as keen on this mod as your others. I'd probably get a 650 Ninja or ER6 specific slip-on as I'd worry about losing torque running straighter-thru. Anyhow I'm getting older and like a quieter bike these days.
