    Heh, not disagreeing there but in all honesty I can't think of a stock exhaust on any bike that I do actually like...easy fix though.

    Got a mate with the new Suzuki GSR 750 and I thought the standard pipe on that wasn't bad at all just waaayyy too quiet, he's just fitted a new Yoshi (japanese one) R77 Ti can finished in a blue hue and fookin' hell that pipe is stunning! Sounds good too. I like the Two Brothers on my 14 but they can't hold a candle to those R77's..

    That's the funniest thing I've read today Forget the free first service, the B-King should come with a free eye exam

    Glad they took the trouble, any more than 266 kg and you'd start distorting the earth's crust.

    FAIL. Not supercharged. After Kwaka patented the supercharger and everything.

    Well the wait is over, initial thoughts? I like the look of it (apart from the flame decals) Also in the video about the engine the guy states it makes the most power of any Kwaka ever built... by a long shot even! when you take in to consideration the power there very own ZX10r makes, well should be some large numbers!

    Be nice to know the dry weight vs the Hayabusa at 220kg or have I missed something , I would guess the stock pipes are probably as heavy ( and as ugly ) as the 'Busa's at around 8kg per side . Big saving to be had first off, forget the R77's - I'd have a set of Yoshi R-22 shorty 'Drag Pipes' on it like on my current 'Busa but that's just me... less is more aye .

    And each to their own .....

    I am sure it is a compromise us buyers would happily make, and just eat a few less pies to compensate.

    Ugly is perspective anyway; I'd never buy a motorcycle with solid reservoirs, way to ugly and old fashioned looking
