has anybody ever heard of someone taking off the exhaust and just straight piping it? is it even legal? would you gain or lose power if you remove the exhaust and just straight pipe it? reason i asked is because i've seen a couple of exhausts that looked like it was just the pipes without the exhaust can. also, a while back, a few racer dudes with fixed up cars were just straight piping their ride.

 

I know ive been wondering this myself as i am looking into new exhaust

 

My guess would be its not legal to run a sraight pipe.I would think it would be very loud.Anyway I am not sure but the muffler helps the overall running of the bike.Its not just there to keep noise down or pollution

 

it will be loud as ****!! I have heard engines running without any form of exhaust system including the manifold. The noise is awsome. Anyhow you need the muffler to aid in back pressure which actually helps with the engine performance.

 

oh ok. thanks guys! that's all i needed to know!

 

Theres a company called Racefit that make em for R1`s ZX-10`s but no CBR yet. Here`s the link to see.....

Looks Fantastic I think, you can gaurantee it`ll be illegal though, and likely make your ears bleed

 

holy s@#$!! dats awesome man..sure to clear ur ears of ear wax man!! its gonna be freakin loud i suppose..saw 1 R6 06 wif a GPR exhaust slip-on..bloody loud and spewing blue flames all over the place!!

 

its a great way to burn up your valve seals... trust me i have seen it happen. not on my bike but a gsxr 1000..

 

Is there a way to keep a little back pressure to keep that from happening...whats the best way you think to do it...or best exhaust for that kind of thing

 

not sure what your asking but i would say get a full exhaust system.. my arata ti system is about as stright thru as i have seen..
