VERY NICE!  Okay, dumb question, what mods did you have to do to get the bolt on fit from stock? I've been looking at Yosh cans for Gixxer 600s too, '01-05, hoping I could get it to fit my '01 without too much heartbreak, I want the TRS tri oval.

It looks gorgeous on your bike, down to the yellow sticker, sounds wonderful. Got that nice rumble I want too, I just don't want super loud, but yours didn't sound head busting loud, sounded just right. I'm tired of mine sounding like an angry sewing machine though. My hubby loves that expression, and now he says his DR sounds like a furious washing machine, because it's a thumper (like a washing machine out of balance) and pops a lot.

Any advice would be MUCH appreciated. We don't have any moto friendly muffler shops down here, and all my welding equipment is gone. I found a V&H full system, but that's it, and don't know how to work out the fitment of the '05-'07 Yosh for my '01 just yet.

Before I installed Leo Vince I had GSXR600 stock pipe installed  ;)
This is how I've done it (welding done by my father - I can't weld to well):

Basically I used custom made flange (4 bolts pattern made of 5mm steel), cut the midpipe in 2 spots (behind the collector and before muffler). Then I changed the angle of the midpipe to make it fit nicely and to gain some brake clearance, then my father welded the midpipe to the collector. Finally he welded the flange to the midpipe at the appropriate angle so I could easily bolt on the new muffler.
It propably sounds complicated but if you have the welder it's not that bad :)
The final step was to paint the pipes :)
PS welding of the midpipe to the collector and flange to the midpipe was done off the bike (whole exhaust system detached from the bike - attached to the bike only for measurements)

here is a link to the website with some pictures of the pipes:    http://bikepics.com/members/kmlkrk/04gs500/

good luck and thanks VERY much for positive comments!! I greatly appreciate that!

Mines charcoal grey and half faired but it's the same engine. 

That pipe really does sound nice on the 500, whodda thunk to put an SBK on a Suz 500 :laugh: :laugh:

Great sound and great look on your new pipe, man!  I'll be picking up that same bike (with a few scratches) hopefully this week and it gave me hope that I can keep it for a few years without pining for a better sounding bike.  The only bad thing is that I have no way to weld the pipe on so I'll have to take it somewhere (which will surely cost an arm and a leg).

I was wondering if you had to rejet your carbs at some point (either with the GSXR can or the new one)?

Yes, I had to rejet the carbs. I installed lunch box filter all together with new pipe so rejet was a must.
