    They do look good. I noticed the crash bungs you've got on it, mind if I ask how much they set you back and how easy are they to fit?

    Alot louder than the oem ones, tho they had just replaced shortened, gutted and rebaffled stock pipes. Hard to tell if they are louder than them or not but definitely sounds deeper.

    Cheers Mate! They came with the bike, someone had done a poor job painting them black which i scrapped off, need to repaint them as they did look better black and yes very easy to take off and put back on.

    Nice, I ordered a new one and chucked it on the Bandit. It's a slightly higher tone but is a lot more.. growly?
    Sounds fucking cool imo.

    How's it run after putting on those pipes? Reason I ask is that after I got my 2 Brothers put on, I noticed a bit more grunt in the low to mid-range, but it also introduced a few flat spots in the rev range.

    In the end, I put a BMC air filter in it, removed the snorkel, got it dynoed with a TEKA ECU reprogram. That sorted out the flat spots, gave it way more power than when stock, but also made it a lot thirstier. I'm lucky if I get 180km per tank now.

    Yeah i only ever get 200 - 250 km, the other pipes i had on were very free flowing so not alot of deference from them, i did however loose alot of low RPM shudder but i put new iridium plugs in at the same time i think they have done this. I have also removed snorkel, pair valve system and have done a TRE mod, adjusted the TPS and balanced the throttle bodies so the bike is just a rocket! No flat spot in my power curve at all. Only bummer is after removing the pair valve system i no longer get deceleration flames

    Awesome bikes tho man love it to bits! Just as much fun to work on as they are ride on.

    Suits the SV better than the Hornet hands down, way nicer lines, aesthetically correct.

    Bandit/Hornet same difference
    Vinz0r's bike would look better with a classic oval pipe rather than one with edges on it in my opinion, the retro style bikes always do.

    Same here. My only big gripe is the suspension, very budget. I've had mine set-up a few times for my weight and am still not happy with it.
    I know the GSXR1000 front forks ( forgot which year ) fit and are supposed to improve handling, but I just can't be arsed doing all that.

    I have a set on mine (in black though)
    like $20 ex ebay took me all of 15 mins to put them on and torque them up to spec.

    Oh ok. I havnt had a problem with mine at all played with the settings untill it felt an even mixture of comfort and performance and havnt had any moments at all yet. My only problem with is the front wheel keeps coming off the ground came up on me over taking a car tonight when i was in 4th o.O.... I was all like yeeehaaaaw!!! And then the steering damper got busy when it touched back down lol.

    Only had the bike a few months so not noticing flaws yet to be honest.
