ide go with a road legal can that becomes a race can once the baffles are removed,just keep them under ur seat lol an air filter should give you an extra fractional noise difference too.

one little point - noise testing per se is not part of the MOT. I never change the cans on my bike for the MOT (never actually had the standard cans) and in 11 years it has never been a serious issue. The worst I have had is an advisory note saying it's louder than stock (and in fairness, I suppose you could say it isn't the quietest bike around ). I think a lot comes down to finding a decent MOT tester and sticking with them, building up a raport so they know you .....

Something I will say though, is the noise is very bike dependant - no 90 degree ever sounds bad on open pipes.My old GPZ11 with a Harris Works pipe was loud but acceptable, GPz550 with an Alfa 4-1 was plainly offensive, yet my Exup 1000 with a slim and baffle-less race Micron was actually quite civilised thanks to the Exup valve

i have the standard pipes on my r1 but with different baffles fitted, there only like £65 on ebay and my mates i ride with are un able to hear there bikes over the noise mine is kicking out, and when looking at it you wouldnt know any different from stock ;)

this is the only clip i have where you can hear it and it does it no justice at all

my bike is so loud and all i have done is change link pipe and can and if that's not enough then cut that sucker in half then change back to standard for mot time

a neighbor just got a carbon can with stainless link pipe for his R1, excellent quality and build, was about £80

danmoto website, I bought speedos from them for custom builds, but having seen this exhaust, I have to say its very tidy for the price

his R1 has got a bit of a growl, but nothing TOO bad, sounds very nice on the over run when following it.

its a bit strange as its quite tolerable when its pootling out of the carpark by our house, but once out on the main road you can really hear it crack on,

i have an MTC can and link pipe on wy fz1 thou tiss ok when ridin at the rate of bimble but when you r on the hooon
it howls !!! sweet as i must say pops nicely when on engine break,so yup tiss just spot on the holigan/respectible limit(more holigan) so have a look at em on flea bay good price 2
cheers Boo

depends on how much u wanna pay.
have been looking into exhausts for my ninja and will probs go for a decat pipe and endcan.
should add a bit of volume and will sound better.
akrapovic and remus do decat pipes for around £80-£110.
can get cheaper ones on ebay if u look.a company called spengineering in frome do em.
endcan is more about what u are prepared to pay and what you like the look of.
give me a shout if u wanna bit more info.
