The pipe on CBR is Yoshi Slip on. Gsxr has Hardrock HR1 short full exhaust. Acepad3, gsxr is seattle born. The guy who sold me that used to work for hardrock in spokane.

here is both bikes. not nose to nose though.

haha yeah, cbr is the first one. gsxr is louder than cbr and has deep sound. It also shoots blue flame when I shift. You can hear you are giving even little gas on gsxr. cbr is quiet consider to that monster

here is their website. HR 1 EXHAUST - Home
Not sure if that is a slip on or full though. The guy did it before moving to Hawaii and plus he was a production manager there. One thing I noticed was the bottom fairings get warped a little from the full exhaust. So when I painted the plastics, I put heat tape on inside of the bottom fairings.

good call on the heat tape. i was just gonna ask the same question about full exhaust or slip-on for the system. im still partial to the peppyness and sound of the cbr even tho the gsxr is a deeper more muscl-y sound ha
