Straight pipe it. You can go to about any custom muffler shop and have them make it for you. Have a friend that done that on a '06 r6.

just remember that a straight pipe will probably get you a ticket if it is too loud
(what safety reasons btw)

and just as any aftermarket pipe a straight pipe will void your warranty

Just about every company out there is making exhaust for the 07 now. Yosh, Two Bros, Leo, etc....... And if a dealer puts it on it will no void the warranty, and I dont see anything it can do for safety reasons, but good luck........ Traffic is the same way here in Orlando

I completely understand. I live in the middle of Orlando, same crap here, and at higher speed, or normal cruise rates, sound is VERY directional and you will not be heard unless you are within a few feet, when it is already to late. Normal city riding, yes you can be heard, but if they dont see you they dont know where you are coming from. Believe me, it doesnt work. Cause if that way the cause, I wouldnt get ran off the road as much as I do. Harley are seen because they are 3 times the size of out bikes: they are wider, taller, etc. Not saying you shouldnt get an exhaust, but you will still have people doingthe same thing they are now.
