Default Lookin for an Exhaust

I am looking to hook m 08 FZ1 with a new slip on exhaust. Anybody have suggestions on the best sounding? I like the look of the 2 Brothers C.F.

Welcom to the Forum Bones!

Different cans for different folks, but I like the look and finish availibilites of the MIVV GP short can. The sound can be downright intoxicating! I have a Gen I with a MIVV GP Titanium slip-on but you can contact PJ here on the web or call him to speak with him direct regarding your inquiry.

Go to this link.

This has the MIVV from PJs Parts. $100 less than 2 Brothers and sounds better.

Good clip with and without Db killer.

MIVV - www.pjparts.com

1:28 -- that is the sound (w/o the DB killer) and what has me hooked!

Chris,

As for deals, PJ is the only US supplier that I know of. Unless you happen to stumble across someone selling one.

The muffler I have is "famous" for it is the one that is pictured on the Candy Red Gen I that the previous owner sold in preparation for selling his bike to recoup some $$.

PJ and Paige are great to work with and can track down almost anything.

I've got a Yoshimura can on mine...they're a bit scarce...well they are in the UK. Sound is moderate on start up and tick over but goes absolutely nuts when you give it the berries

Loud is safe for me as I spend every morning and evening splitting traffic on my commute in and out of London.

All it is a rivet that can be drilled out and then use a 10mm screw with nut to hold it back in place. Allows for easy access, if you choose to, to play around with the DB killer in/out.
