Spent last night ripping apart the bike and replacing the stock lights. D2Moto was a mess trying to get my parts so did some shopping at bob weaver and went a different route that I think turned out pretty good.

MUCH better, although I fully support burning down Bob Weaver Motorsports. Let’s get an exhaust on this thing, asap! ---

Wow that Scorpion I think I love. I just am listening to audio clips of it. Only thing is tho it seems like it will look the same and be really long because of that middle pipe so not sure if I would be better off modifying the whole thing to make it smaller. ---

We can have a cutting down our exhausts party here. It’s super easy, the slip-on exhausts are “stock” length, I find that it’s only a suggestion to keep it that long, not a requirement. ---

I will see. I may have Detwincam throw on a RS-3 which seems to sound pretty decent on my bike without any baffle. With just a slip/bolt on, you really don’t need a power command or anything like that right? I don’t plan to be donig any MotoGP racing but don’t want it to sound like shit. ---

Most bikes are fine with a slip-on and won’t require any PC tuning. And by most I’m pretty sure R6’s are included although I’m not too knowledgeable about them. BTW it’s amazing what a few simple light changes can do to a bike. Looks great! ---

Slip-ons don’t require remapping or PC tuning. They provide only a marginal increase in performance…if that. They’re more for looks/sound. Full exhausts (Headers to pipe) require a tune for power, but cost about 4x more. ---

Please don’t pay someone to put on a slip on. There are enough people on here(including myself) that are willing to help if you’re worried about it. It’s literally a mount bolt and a clamp on your bike. ---

Joe’s right, the hardest part would be cutting your mid-pipe if it’s required. ---

Here is the latest. I guess the last pair was bad. I am not sure if I like how they are attached so may need to rework it but here is the idea. Also gotta swap out the standard light to a HID clear one so it looks better. ![http://i51.tinypic.com/2qdook3.jpg](http://i51.tinypic.com/2qdook3.jpg) Got the stickers off it too ![http://i54.tinypic.com/11kle0m.jpg](http://i54.tinypic.com/11kle0m.jpg) ---
