GSXR Can

[Anakist]

Will the stock can of a GSXR be a worthwhile upgrade over the one on a GS? It also fits a TL1000 so it should be better than the stock one without being too loud.

I have get one for AU$65 delivered if that influences the advice.

I put one on mine & don't mind it. It has a good sound & looks better than the stocker, plus it was cheaper than buying a full system.

i had a gsxr 1000 can on mine, the only thing it realy did was take up room but it was soooo much lighter than the stock one.

i now have a scropin can on the flange the stock gix pipe cam with and it sounds ok but you got to remeber its still jsut a twin soo.....

The GSXR/TL cans are heavy. Personally I would not bother with them unless I got one for free and I had to replace the can. But I do not care for the sound from stock cans either.

What I had to do to mount it on was make a flange to bolt the can to. I can give you a template for the flange if yours is a 4 bolt.

I moved the mounting position for the can from the front to the rear of the foot peg holder.

That can looks pretty good. It matches the bodywork line.

Not wild about the fuzzy seat though.

But the fuzzy seat is so comfy & plus it covers up the cracks. 

The only trouble is it takes a little bit to dry out when it gets wet.

Sounds a little too personal .

I bought a 76 vega wagon in high school with the entire interior covered in LUV FUR

paid $5 more than the junk man...$40
one side of the car was shorter than the other
front springs were seriously collapsed....had 6-8 spring expanders in each to ger the wheels to sit kinda flat on the road
ate tires about every 3-4 weeks
good thing there was a free supply of tires out behind the co-op....at night....
