Parallel twin's power delivery is similar to V-twin except that the exhaust would sound a little more growly than thumpy.
Thanks for the input!

I wish they'd release one of the earlier color schemes they had for the bike in the UK in the US. It's pure sex!

I think they sound cool and look great. I'm a big fan, but I don't know if I can live with the power level (I'm a bit of a torque junkie).

Still, check this out:

You know I never realized just how many "exhaust videos" there were on YouTube until now. Wow! You can see that bike with basically every exhaust made for it. Pretty cool.

I agree, but I do love the versys!! Its a sexy bike as well, just one I would need to lower to comfortably ride...sat on it at the dealer, he bout died when I picked her off the stand, he didnt think I could do so...but barely having tippy toes on the ground didnt give me a great level of comfort as leaning it over onto 1 foot placed so much weight on the foot and leg, it would be too easy for my foot to slide out and leave us both on the ground!
