It reduces alot of the popping and backfiring when running a full exhaust.
It also really helps clean up the look of the engine in my opinion.

That's a good question lol, I dunno... The bike is my hobby, it's my play toy.
My wife and I agree I can have a certain amount of money each month to do whatever the heck I want with. I can save that money to buy something big (like an exhaust) or I can use it to buy something small (I just get a certain amount each month).
I've got a few more mods coming up in the next few months (I really want to re-do the springs in the front fork, I'm a big guy, and the mushy front end is just no fun). New tires and stainless steel brake lines are also on the agenda.

If I had to put a dollar figure on everything so far? I would guess it's over $1,000 in extra's and add-ons (okay, I know it's over 1,000). Some people have big houses, fancy cars, etc... I've got a little 250 with some bolt on mods, but she sure is pretty!

Edit- I should mention, I got really lucky and found a full area P exhaust used on ebay, the price wasn't phenomenal, but it was less then new. I've also saved a ton of money by doing all of the work either myself, or with a good buddy of mine. The only thing I have to take it to a shop for is to get it dyno-tuned, After all of this work (and cash) getting a few go fast goodies on her, I can't see not spending the money to have it running as good as possible.
