Hi Folks, I have a low-mileage unit for sale which is currently boxed up ready for my return to Oz. However, if you're in the Americas, UK or Europe, now would be the time to get it as the shipping from Peru (Sth. America) would be cheaper. $USD500.00 + Postage Postage USA Certified Economy S/.294.10 Certified Priority S/.357.00 Express S/.428.60 UK Certified Economy S/.327.00 Certified Priority S/.376.60 Express S/.488.50 https://www.serpost.com.pe/Cliente/CalculadoraTarifa If you can't access the above page you may need to use a VPN.

Does anyone run with replica Yosi or Akra slip ons on their 6th gen? I have a 2002 with staintunes but I hate the look of them (they look very 90s) and the sound is not all that impressive either. Being on a budget, I was thinking to keep the staintunes pipe from the car to the muffler, but swap the muffler for something like what is linked below. Would love your opinions or how it experiences have been. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/100...&terminal_id=d66aa675de044d22a4568e9993fbe019

Hi all, I know it's been covered before, but I'm looking for a left side exit exhaust system for my VFR750 RC36 (1991). I'm located in Europe, so shipping overseas is a bit expensive. Does anyone know a good system or has one? Thanks! Jurjen

Hi everyone. I have been contemplating getting my exhaust shields powder coated black to match the rest of my bikes powder coated items. Such as my rearsets, swingarm, head cover, bars, levers, clamp, etc. Has anyone ever done this before and would the heat from the exhaust effect the powder coat at all. Thanks for looking. In my opnion the guards being black would completely change the look of the bike.

hi Guys, new to the vfr forums, thought I would show you the exhaust system I made for my '14 vfr. its a 4 into 2, so the front two cylinders and rear two are independant. the mufflers I made from 100mm pipe I flattened in the press to form an oval shape. primaries are 35mm ID going into 55mm ID, so she is , um, pretty big lol. results so far are very pleasing, nice note and no melted bits. has anyone got a map for PCV that they are happy with sharing with me ? the base map on the power commander site is for a pretty stock bike, figured there must be something else out there. Im running the usual airbox mods, BMC filter and autotune. cheers.

I've posted about this in the past, but I finally sourced the parts I needed and had some time off school and work to go tinker in the garage. I did some research into the stock system vs an aftermarket system and they all said the same thing. The stock exhaust is heavy, restrictive, and muffles the sound off the V4 engine a little too much using a 3 baffle system. Aftermarket exhausts were lighter, way louder because of a straight through design, but didn't look right compared to the stock cans. Many people also run into bag fitment issues when using aftermarket cans. So my problem was how to take the best of both worlds, looks and proper fitment of the stock can, and mesh it with the performance and sound of an aftermarket can? What I came up with was a design to remove the stock baffles and replace it with a single baffle that would flow better, sound better, lose a bit of weight, and last a long time. The final design changed from my poorly done sketch, but I think it'll work better This will be a photo heavy post, sorry to those with slower connections, but my hope is that others will be able to do the same if they choose to. So here's what I did: I ordered up a used gen 6 exhaust system off ebay to hack apart so I could keep the stock one if I ever wanted to go back. Removed the heat shields and other bits and bobs. I cut off the tips of each can right beside the weld using a dremel. It took 12 cutting wheels and a dull hacksaw blade (ran out of cutting wheels) to remove both sides. That metal is tough! I used vice grips to pull out the stock baffles, it took a fair bit of wiggling and pulling but they eventually slipped out. Wear gloves when you do this, as the cut metal is quite sharp and the fibreglass packing around the baffles is super itchy. I then removed the fibreglass sheet from the baffles and broke out the cutting wheels again. After cutting off both ends of the baffle, cutting through the inlet and outlet pipes as well, I discarded the center section as it would be unneeded in the final design. At this point I picked up a 48" length of 1.25" perforated stainless steel pipe to be cut into 4 smaller sections (12" each). I used a 1.25" bi-metal hole saw to cut two holes on the inlet side of the stock baffle to fit the perforated pipe through. I laid everything out and riveted the stainless pipes to the outlet pipes to keep them in place. I'll take everything to be welded at a later date. I then slipped the inlet pipe of the stock baffle over the two new pipes and placed rivets on each side to hold it in place. After some pushing and a few cuts later, I was able to slip the new set up into the stock can no problem. I still have to finish the other can before re-installing everything on the bike and firing it up. Hopefully I'll have that done later this week. Exams and work keep interfering with play time Total costs: Muffler: 250$ Pipe: 40$ Rivets: 7$ total: ~250$ for a perfectly fitting gen 6 slip on!

Picked up a used Carbon Fibre Leo Vince SBK Evo II set of slipons for the VFR... And because we all like sound effects, here is a video of my '02 VFR with (a)stock exhaust, (b)open CAT, ©Leo's with spuds out. https://youtu.be/trnz7tcGZOE Updated pics:

I have a question concerning stock 5th gen exhaust, exactly the muffler / silencer. The -98-99 has a slightly different injection as not a catalytic converter in some sale areas as a cold start level on the handlebar like choke on the older carburetor VFR´s, compare to the -00-01 ones. What I wounder do they still have the same muffler/silencer? or is it different, and if in what way. Manly wounder, can a stock muffler/silencer from a -99 be used on a -00 without a problem.

The mufflers on my Scorpion Exhaust just seem too long for me. I'd like to shorten them a bit, like 4 inches or so. I played a bit with Microsoft Paint and like the look. What do you all think? Should I put this on my winter project list? Compare the images...
