So I am aware that the stock exhaust off an R6 will fit onto a GS500, but can an aftermarket slip on exhaust for the R6 work just the same?

Couldn't say for sure without seeing all the parts. But maybe this will help:

I have some nice scorpion exhausts ... Ti only 200 and ship, and you get $5 off a jet kit cos they'll ship in the box with pipe.
I bought these to fit on the various bikes I got, but well, I dunno when those ever are getting built.
Cool.

I have a micron slipon that fit an R6 on mine and works/sounds great. The pipe from the headers needed a little work on it but didn't seem to be that big of a job. No problems with bogging,etc.


Notice the weld

Hey Buddha
Do you have any photos of the scorpion exhausts?
Thanks

Im using an aftermarket exhaust from an r6, the mid pipe needed a slight bend but other than that it looks great

I like that GS moose, nice colors. Is your headlight bucket black? Mine is at the powder coater this week.

I'm just looking for a really cheap way to get my bike to sound louder, but still be legal, aka not straight pipes. I did find this though, could it work?

It says in the FAQ, "*Due to different state regulations on emissions and noise disturbance, this item is for off-road use only. Use at your own risk.".  If you do want to risk it (or only ride your gs off-road), they also claim to give full refunds minus the cost of shipping.  So if it doesn't fit, send it back.

Yes, the headlight bucket is black, As far as the colours, there stock for an 03, though I was thinking if looking for a set of white wheels for her
