Hi folks

i want to upgrade my std one slip on can for some thing better .

I have few potential winners in this big battle ;) but i woudlike to hear Your opinion about it , so what You Suggest ? I'm open to all ideas ;)

I think about
1. SC PROJECT
2. Akropovic
3. Yoshimura
4. After market " ebay " ?..

i dont want full exhaust just slip on ;)

thanks for your opinions and suggestions Thomas
 
Exhaust

If you intend on doing any trackdays you are far better off purchasing an Akrapovič or Arrow full length slip-on with baffle. The 2015/16 is quite loud as standard and with a shorter exhaust they tend to fail drive-by noise testing on track resulting in a black flag.

Got an Arrow on my 15 , ?350 ish direct from Italy. Looks good and isn't much louder than standard as I've left the baffle in.
 
How does the bike run with the Arrow, and the baffle fitted? Read a couple of times that the baffle makes it a bit ****, or is it OK. I like the look of the Arrow can.

Anyone got the Yoshi? Is that much louder than the standard set up?

Runs fine , I've never noticed any different from standard. It does look good and relatively cheap compared to the rest.

Hello. Have you managed to test anywhere high speed with the baffle fitted? I hardly notice it's fitted on the Ducati at most UK tracks but I was losing 15mph where the BMW would hit 185mph on the main straight and fast corners at Spa recently. I'm guessing Snetterton might be noticeable but I can't think of anywhere else with noise restrictions that are that fast in the UK?
 
thank you very much for all the suggestions and opinions ;)

Did any one try Yoshi ? Bcs lots of lots beem's run on Acrapovic but im wondering about Yoshi or Toce ?
I'm not going too much at the track days but probably I will this summer 3-4 times . For a track days i can use standard one ;) mostly I use my S for day out with guys ;)

Did any one use a other slip on's than top brands like a for example Termignoni , Scorpion ,Spark, Laser Extreme Gp ?

There's a BMW day at Bruntingthorpe soon ;) Straightline testing!

"The date is Saturday 24[SUP]th[/SUP] September and it is a half day event, kicking off at 12:30pm for a briefing before the fun starts at 13:00 until the track closes again at 17:00.The cost of this is ?280 and the numbers are very limited to just 35 guests. - Contact [email protected]"
 
If you find the brand on a WSBK / BSB / MotoGP...chances are they make a decent product. Pick the one you like. Noise is an issue mainly with Decatting.
 
Thanks guys for all comments ;)

my favorite is a SC CR-T slip on with full *** link pip , but i read some feedback's about a drastic difference in the fuel consumption :cower::cower::cower::cower: any idea it's true or not ?
 
Hello.
I have a yoshimura r55 slip on.
I paid ?560 and it took 5 mins to fit.

I love the look as its not as long as the akra.

You still get that lovely pop and bangs and that dud dud dud sound when holding throttle steady.

The sound is a little louder than stock but I wouldn't say massively.

I thought the stock can was quite loud for a stock.
I'll do a vid and put a link to it tomorrow.
