Well I have just had a new carbon fibre Arrow can put on my CBR and it sound loooovely. Actually, I am told the best thing to describe the sound is kind of like a the sound of an out board (according to my girlfriend:bash: ). Anyway can't wait to get out on the road and get some heads turning this weekend - and why I didn't do this soooner :slap:

CBR600 with Arrow pipe. That will sound magnificent. I loved Slingshot's CBR with its Arrow pipe. The noise was spine tingling.

I've just stuck arrow's on the aprilia, sounds great, and gave it a noticable boost in pace too (based on the seat-of-your-pants dyno). And they look nice and shiny . . .

Yeh i had a budget 2" raised pipe on my cbr600f3 but when i sold it and bought the gixxer it had a standard pipe. First bike i've owned that has been so quiet so That had to be changed as soon as i had the cash...

This is what the cibber looked like..

No just the can and you have to by the last stage of the pipe seperately (which is good cause it is light stainless). I saw the one on tardme for $400 for the full system. Just check up on whether it fits and the cost of re-jetting. If you can't re-jet with a standard kit it can get pricey.
