SO...

financially, it would be stupid to unload on a new bike whislt still paying another off...

but, it sounds so dull and lifeless..


what is a good exhaust. thats cheap, that wont require retuning....?
 
leovince aluminium exhaust slip on

I got mine from ebay 410euros with a bmc air filter as a gift.

nice deep sound.
 
That's because there's no such thing as a "cheap" exhaust for the FZ6. Cheapest you'll find is around $700, unless you find a used one.

And if you want it done right, the bike has to be remapped.
 
If your looking at an ebay dealer do what I do, email them and ask for a better price, might be suprised how well you can do :p
Same goes for the online shops, a few emails and you might find a few good discounts.

Just go to the hardware store and start buying metric tools. You can never have too many tools.
 
Benj, Mat Mladins online shop sells Yoshi stainless for around $800. They do poke out abit though.

Still kinda expensive, but almost half the price I got quoted for Akra's.




Oops, my bad. You already got your pipes!
