Exhaust recommendations please

[stuartb]

I've sacked buying a Vostok watch... I've got penis envy with these juicy cans all you geezers have.. So I'm manning up...

My Delk slip on isn't doing it....so I'd like to change...and go large ! I'd welcome some RECs...quite happy with a slip on, not sure about decatting so slip on will be hunky dory.


Fire away.. Thanks in anticipation

If youre changing the can I would fit it with a decat pipe whatever you buy, the weight saving alone is worthwhile.

Soof. Does that mean binning the CAT. If so will I have to get the bike modified..dynoed or that then ?... I've always just done a slip on...im fancying the Racefit that growler looks really good

 

[stuartb]

How difficult is it taking the CAT off

If the job is worth doing...

Akrapovic Titanium and Carbon Race system

Akrapovic Carbon hanger

You could then sell the stock system for ???'s back

OP, you have an HP4, all you have to do is buy the Race link pipe. It replaces the OEM catalytic converter and mid-pipe, essentially making it a full system without any restrictions.

Lol thats mad that must be the John Holmes of the exhaust world..

Easy. Just get a link pipe and it's a 10 minute job to remove and replace the section with the cat. 4 springs I think with the belly pan off.

with the oe can the decat doesn't require any fueling changes, but when you decide what can you are getting, I'd get a link pipe that will fit it to your hp4 system, then run it and see if the fueling is good before throwing it at a dyno, it might not need anything doing.

Soof im the original guy that built airfix models and got the glue and paint all over my face and hands. Read thru your and others posts a while back and it started to fill me with dread. No doubt if I started disconnecting the CAT and cables id end up with comfy nuts as in "where the fuxx did they comfy".

So think I mite just buy the can as a slip on and see how it goes 1st...have a budget of 500..the link pipe is similarly priced.

I call racefit later.. cheers all

Is that what you tell all the ladies Stu .

In terms of laziness I got my dealer to supply and fit the link pipe for me.

lol crowdfunding.... I'd have a lot more bikes in the garage if I didn't have the two nippers to clothe, feed and educate. In 't old days they'd be down pit earning a crust already .

If you don't like mechanical work, definitely don't go for a full system as it is 'supposed' to take 5 hours to fit, good luck with that, it took me about 8, but I didn't damage anything, so still happy.

That is for an Akrapovic btw.

Full Exhaust System

It took me half a day to fit a HP Race Power Kit (Akrapovič Race Full System) and then the bike was required to go back to BMW for the associated ECU enabling and race mapping. Fitting a full system on the S1000RR can certainly be a time consuming process.
