Are they twin exit pipes, or is there something interestingly interesting mounted below the outlets?

Then again I've always liked them.
He'll be taking you literally Howard ... not only will the Mille exhaust disappear but the Rotax lump will be replaced by a Honda I4 ....


No to the engine, the Bird was the only IL4 I've owned, I've had a V4 and the rest have been twins.

Twin exits, but with baffles in. Without them - it's like the hell and heaven dancing together (although my neighbours would disagree).

Take em out Sab and screw the neighbours
My neighbours don't like mine either but as long as they allow their dog to $h1t in my back garden then I will continue to let her idle for 10 minutes or so prior to revvin up and leaving at unearthly times on a Sunday morning.
Considerate? Moi?
Nope

Must say that although I
do love my oval cans;

I'd love some pipework that takes em underseat.
I just missed out on a set made by Renegade on Ebay recently, (anyone on ere get em?), and they looked
awesome!
They utilised a Duke number plate/indy bracket, (genius!), and the oval cans were turned 90' so they laid flat, (exit ports turned back to point downwards).
Sorry; No picture Im afraid...

Except that every man and his dog is now going to the 'pipes under the seat' look.
Every new Honda / Suzuki / Kwak / Yam - they're all the damned same. Is there nothing new?

Now that I would like to see! Hell, if I win the Lotto, I would consider doing that to my Falco. Mind you, I do have to carry a pillion a lot, so the high-mount pipes might not be the best option.

The pipes were physically
under the tail unit so a pillion would be no problem. Might not be much room under there... Especially with the Mille swinger on, (tho I know you aint done that mod V!).

Two is the magic number... ;)

Done lots of mods to my Falco, had the renegade highmounts, had the renegade full system with carbon ovals but like the BEFexhaust more!
For me the best mod as for the standard things, the rebuild with sbk bar and modified Tuono fairing and frontframe is the best overal.
Just bought a 04+ single radiator, maybe thats gonna be the best mod?
