Really? Weight difference is a consideration for a performance bike. My Yoshimura CF is majorly less weight than the stock unit. Performance is also a little thing that helps too. ;-)

 

lol well wouldnt a "performance" bike get a full exhaust?

and hate to be the bearer of bad news lol but most people could lose a whoping 5 lbs themselves if they are lookin to cut weight somewhere

 

but isnt the bike balanced from the factory? so if the weight savings was really big i would think it would throw the balance of the bike off

 

LOL Here it goes again.

Bottom line: Slip-on's provide a very minor performance boost, even when considering the weight change. A good sit on the toilet will take 5lbs off your bike. If you want performance exhaust, you have to replace the manifold WITH the muffler. The only reasons to get a slip-on are looks and sound (which, to some, are valid reasons). but with how much a slip-on costs, just save up the few extra bucks and get yourself a worthwhile system.

 

Unless you are getting a full system with a tune then you are getting jack **** for performance with a slip-on.

 

lol or better yet would person looking solely for performance get a f4i? I know i wouldnt....

 

we all know that the f4i is the fastest sportbike in the world

 

It's like 5lbs, and you compensate as the driver. I personally swapped my entire exhaust out, and didn't feel a difference.

 

thats what i mean-is the weight savings even enough to noticeably help?

 

wellllll lol if a guy (lets say little billy) weighed 250 and little billy lost 100 pounds.... then im sure lol
