Straight pipes?

[wely324]

is there any info or has anyone put straight pipes on their fz6?

When I took my stock exhaust off to put on my Scorpions, I had to run it up and down the street a few times with nothing but the cat on it.... It sounded like armageddon. IT was fun, my slip ons are a nice compromise though. If you like noise violation tickets and decreased performance (unless you have a power commander) then it is a good option. It was pretty fun though....

Please don't do it.

Thank you.

the "noise" (you cant call it a note) will be unbareable..e-marked aftermarket cans are plenty loud enough.

i find the underseat mounted cans to buzz my head much more than equally loud side mounted cans for some reason

Please don't do it.

+1!

Most aftermarket cans are loud enough! Straight pipes would just be brutal, annoying and very illegal.

do it! or well at least try it and make a movie of it and put it on youtube

What do you mean by straight pipes?

Straight through system,ie no baffles at all or something else?

I run mine with no baffles,but thats purely for safety

I will atleast try as I love making noise:rockon:, but more than likely I'm thinking of going with the M4 exhaust, but there are so many choices

Ridgeback: by straight pipes I mean no muffler or cat.

Yes! Please make a video that we can use to persuade others that it is a bad idea. :thumbup:

It is gonna sound like total garbage. :spank:

 

[vrsbrazil]

That´s an ugly mod right there

 

[Smittyboy]

before you try it, find your favorite few songs and listen to them... They'll never sound the same to you again...

Isn't there a vid posted on here somewhere with open pipes? Kinda like a big lawn mower if I recall.

Yeah I was looking for that to post. The guy who did it is alright so would probably be okay if you ask him questions on what he did. They don't sound as poppy and nasty as I'd thought and look great. I be they are horribly loud though. I'd like to see a comparison vid of them with the stock/aftermarket pipes with a proper DB measurement, bet it's into the ear-bleeding levels!

 

[wely324]

I found out how he did it looking on another forum. It was 1 7/8th inch flex pipe with 3.5 inch tips.

Is this a gay joke?

Alright so after a full day making my FZ into something Evil I succeeded in removing the exhaust and welding up some straight pipes after the Cat. I drove it home at 2:30am and thought I was going to get a noise violation ticket. I'll get a movie tomorrow, but I think I'm going to be ordering a new exhaust. Any ideas.? Something that will be heard but not illegal, ohhhh and cheap I love cheap!
