With the fender eliminator, does it come as a kit with the signal lights and everything, that is the only other part of the bike I don't like and want to change before summer.
i personally think the stock 2008+ CBR1000RR muffler looks far better than any aftermarket, at least it looks like it properly fit with the fairing around it
once its warm enough to take the bike out and ride it long enough, maybe you'll change your mind about that stock exhaust.
i have a Yoshimura (without the dB killer) slip-on in my CBR600RR. it sounds awesome on idle and when i revv it, but it get really noisy after 10-15 mins on Highway
p.s. only reason i put this Yoshimura slip-on is because the bike had a crappy chinese muffler that wasnt mounted properly (mid-pipe was scratching on the swingarm) when i bought it and i found this used Yosh for $150

Toce & Taylormade make some pretty cool looking slip-ons, both with an awesome sound, and they're both very different from each other. Toce is super aggressive-looking and deeper, whereas Taylormade is a pseudo-delete, which is a cool concept. I went with the Toce because I preferred that look and sound. It's completely personal preference, as you don't get any real performance gain. Hit Youtube with some good headphones and grab what you like.
