The key to that is going to be putting a vtwin or this new R1 at the other end of whatever exhaust you find.

Not happening. Keeping the Kawi for another 5+ years. I have a car payment now, so until it is paid for the bike is staying.
And honestly the bikes just keep getting worse and worse on looks and "fit" for me.

Too bad about the heat issue.......because I would seriously pimp the Rossi LE edition:

just bought a sato full with gp mini can ive heard it on another zx10 and its pure sex, just gets a bit loud when you get higher into the revs. See if they make it for the 6

I have the standard sato muffler as well for when its time to have fun and not alert the entire state (exhaust goes on next week i shall try and get a vid with sound check but no promises).

Btw old R1s look better

Thanks. I'm not digging the mini gp can, but I'll have to do a search on a sound byte to see if it is what I'm wanting. I have a feeling I'll never get exactly what I want without paying a fortune for it. I need to find a rich sugar daddy.
