I haven't heard Gos's since he cut it but I've heard Hoffy's and its loud.
I've had a Yoshi RS3 on a 9 and it was loud. I've got an Akra on the 10 and it's not loud but it sounds nice.

Yeah if you are just getting a bolt on get the Yoshi. If you are getting a full system and money isnt an issue go the Akra I know a few people with the Akra and it didnt need a PC3. I have a Muzzy full system and it sound great but it cost me nearly a grand for the PC3 and tunning to get it to run ok. I got it from the USA and it was cheap. It arrived a week or so later and was a perfect fit. Looks good too.

Mate you need a Yoshimur ! The yoshi's blend with the stock header better in my opinion, I have seen some dodgy looking mounting plates and shrouds on other brands, such a Jardine, D&D..etc.
Fully sick Yoshimur mate ! cant go wrong and the bike runs great with it on.
We can even help you shorten it

I'll be looking for a muffler for my 2006 12 soon too.
I want to eventually fit a PCIII and have it custom tuned, but which brands can bolt on & run fine without a PCIII or tuning(if any)?
I do like Hoffy's muff.

thats the difference in looks between a full system and a slip on muffler. the big guys muzzy looks suhweet, like REALLY suhweet. the stainless muzzy cans are *really* shiny.
it is also really loud but has a really deep bellowing note that is easy to listen too, in fact the Hoff was all over the back of the big guy like a bad suit just trying to listen to it

A Yoshi RS3 will bolt straight up with no PCIII required. They work *great*, and so do a few others....
Muzzy pipes need a bit more tuning than most, but do have an awesome note, and once tuned, work really well.
I used JC Motors Motorcycle Exhausts (e-bay) for the Yoshi, it was >$300 cheaper than the local dealer....
