The akra looks good, but I will have to look on You Tube and have a listen.

As I said, I seem to be immediately drawn to the lower rumble, that high pitched scream is very annoying (part of the reason I want a new pipe- the Gixxer sounds like it's about to self destruct at 16000 rpm. :P )

NOTHING could be as loud as the Two Brothers on the ER- god I miss that sound! :(
For anyone who hasn't seen it.......

based on that clip i think our in for a rude awakening ;)

nah the ER is definitly more thumpy

Re: Pipe for the Gixxer

Mmmm- thumpy is what I'm looking for!

I think I am more confused than ever! :?

BTW- the clip doesn't do the Two Brothers pipe justice- my friend lived in an adjacent street and it woke her up in the mornings when I rode to work! I used to pull in my clutch every time I saw a cop........ :oops:

sorry all I meant was the 600 will never be a thumpy as the ER. I's just not that style of motor

the akra looked cool but the M4 will be one of the loudest as most of the boys and girls from the PiTs will atest ;)

Yes I understand Blurr- I have been told I need a big v-twin instead of a new pipe!

This bike addiction isn't cheap is it?! :shock:

Yes I am kind of freaked by online ordering after an order from the US (including a Two Brothers exhaust, double bubble screen, bars, fender eliminator, bar ends, and pegs) went missing in transit ( not from the above mentioned company might I add.) Getting some assistance was a nightmare!

Thanks Tinman. If Santa doesn't leave a pipe under my tree (not likely after the late request) I will hit the birthday fairy up for one in Feb
(Although with my 'I WANT IT NOW' attitude I would say I will have pics of the new pipe fitted my mid Jan! :lol: )
