Jaybird. Your quite right,and that is sound advice. Believe it or not I appreciate wsideshow's opinion. Sorry if my sence of humour didn't come across in the post.

 

No prob, I've been known to booger a joke or 2 myself. Welcome to the board. I hope you become a regular poster.

 

tahoe has an akra and is very happy...but tahoe has an akra f/s...
for slip on...ain't gonna matter meng...cause akra won't yield much more than the others, if any at all.

 

Two Brothers! The M2 VALE looks bad ***. Also, have you thought about a high mount?

I've owned a Yoshi and a Two Brothers, and the Two Brothers sounds lounder, deeper and better (IMHO).

 

I just bought my first F4i last fall, before that I only rode dirt bikes and fourwheelers. But anyways I understand that Yosh and 2 Bro are good pipes. but could someone tell me what a high mount is? Thanks

 

see lifties avatar? that's a high mount pipe, it mouts way up higher. standard mount is same as stock.

 

Look at the exhaust in lifties avatar..that's a high mount. It mounts higher up on the bike...looks good, and increases ground clearance for leaning it way over.

 

epnf4i.I don't mean for you not to buy that exhaust.I almost made a rush decision and bought it for myself.To each his own.If you have your heart set on it doesn't matter what the rest of us think at the end of the day

No probs man. I should clarify as well. I bought the pipe not expecting any appreciable hp gain. I bought it for the look and sound, which I am familiar with as one of the guys I regularly ride with has one. No doubt after a few track days this sumer I'll get the "full system bug" at which time I probably.......no........definitely consult the forum for opinions in hopes of starting such an informative and controversial thread. lol

 

naw it's not really controversial really.Just it's the net and some people have to try to start fights on everything you know how it is.Honestly find a real race shop.Not a dealer/parts shop.They won't bs you into buying anything that isn't good for your bike.I go to a place that works on ama honda bikes and they sell no parts.So I trust these people on anything they tell me
