Well, as far as I know, they don't make that exhaust for it anymore, I think that  commuterguy has one, he'd be better to talk to about it, I'm sure he'll chime in here in awhile.

The yoshimura pipe is discontinued. So congratulations :thumb:
As far as i'm concerned there is no downside to having this pipe.
More power, better sound. Take care of it since they are rare.

i posted about it earlier, but the engine jus seems like it being overworked at 5k.  is it just the exhaust fooling me?  I don't like working on bikes, lol.  I like riding them.  thats why i am timid about overrevving.  i know, damn noobies...........

if it's jetted correctly, it's a great exhaust... mine's ugly but performance-wise it really improved the bike.
