Hi everyone.
I experimented with a home made exhaust system and I've decided I want to go back to stock, so if I can recoup some of the money I spent that'd be nice.
The exhaust is the stock silencer off of a GSXR750 k8
Looks just like this:
www.ebay.co.uk/itm/suzuki-gsxr-600-750-k8-k9-k10-L0-exhaust-end-can-silencer-/140891665445?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Parts&hash=item20cdcc3425&_uhb=1
With a nice aluminium heat shield that covers the 2 into 1 pipe. unfortunately the whole thing is a bit scratched up, you don't notice too much when its on the bike but up close it's not too pretty.
The real advantage is that it's titanium, so totally rust free, it's well made and since it's the end can from a system that has a cat and collector seperately to the end can, it's not all that quiet or restrictive so it sounds really nice. Not obnoxious at all, snarls at mid revs quite nicely.
The 2 into 1 is made of stainless and has been shimmed with a bit of tin can just to step up the end of the 2 into 1 into the silencer. seems to work fine.
I probably spent around £60 in total, which is a bit above the odds I guess. I just really miss the stock can, i like the bike quiet.
So whoever can give me as much of the money I spent back will get it delivered to their door!
