How hard was installation?

Install wasn't bad at all. The worst part was removing that heat shield from the stock exhaust

. Had to make a trip to Home Depot to get the right size wrench. After getting that off it was pretty easy.

Now that I think about it I should have taken pics. I don't think there is a specific DIY guide for this.

Nice install. Slip on or full exhaust?
Installation for slip on is super easy and straight forward. Removal of stock exhaust is even in the service manual.

Slip on.

Yea removing stock wasn't hard. It was just that fact that there was no give in those screws/bolts on that heat shield. Had to use some elbow grease lol

Sweet - glad you like it. I have had my bike for about 3 years and have been looking into a new exhaust for it. But, being a girl - am unable to make a decision to save my life.

As long as you do your research and like what you find...go for it lol

rceezy · July 19th, 2012, 05:55 PM

Such sage advice.

What made you decide to go with Two Bros vs uh... The Other Ones?

MrTsquared903 · July 19th, 2012, 06:11 PM

Honestly it was a toss up between this and the Akrapovic slip on but in the end:

1. Hadn't heard or read a lot of negative reviews. There were a few but I felt like they were mostly biased.

2. Sound was great without the power tip.

3. Looked good against the color of my bike.

rceezy · July 19th, 2012, 06:25 PM

Thanks Mr. T!

I'm going to do some heavy research and get the ball rollin on a new exhaust. I needs it bad.

Leo Vince full system
Anything from area p
Akra slip on cuz it looks badass
Tyga full system
Any company that offers a full system and a slipon, I recommend the full. (two bros, tyga, yoshi, or Leo Vince)

if price is an issue and the slipon is more for style/sound, consider gutting your stock can and making your own slipon. You can choose the length of the can and the core size (basically you choose how obnoxious it is

) a competent motorcycle shop or machine shop should be able to do the welding work for you as long as you have the parts ready.

so far so good. haven't had any problems yet but i'll keep an eye on it. i think those are more or less extreme cases

and that looks like a two bros exhaust on your bike lol (my bad if I'm wrong)

iNinja · August 3rd, 2012, 03:30 PM

MrTsquared903 · August 3rd, 2012, 03:55 PM

What you need is a sleek sexy looking exhaust with a deep tone and not so loud that you can hear it 5 miles away. Area P 18" mmmmmmm plus if you get the full system it will give you quite a bit more power

I want to get a slip on and im leaning towards 2 brothers because of the ratings but would I have to rejet? Im looking for a solution where I wouldn't need to rejet.

And where did you buy it, any places in T.O recommended?

iZapp · March 2nd, 2013, 09:24 AM

this is the Leo Vince Corsa pipe. no noticeable power improvement until you WIND IT OUT...

Haven't re-jetted yet (on the to-do list) but I haven't had any issues at all. I put the exhaust on way back in July. I have noticed a slight hit to my gas mileage but other than that it still runs just fine.

And I ordered mine online: http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com...n-Exhaust.aspx

iZapp · March 2nd, 2013, 09:39 AM

re jetting, i did NOT change the mains. however, i did add some shims to the stock needles (~0.040"??) which was my poor mans jet kit.

tygapaul · March 18th, 2013, 11:26 PM

Tyga Performance have a sale on their exhaust systems at the moment, so now is a good time to order...
