I can't convince myself to buy a FMF for what they're asking these days, especially with our exchange the way it is. So, I've been looking at alternatives. It would seem the inlets of the stock cans are 35mm, which continently matches that of some popular single cylinder sport bikes, like the CBR250. So, there are some can's available with a 35mm inlet. I've been looking specifically at TYGA. The Magot mini is too short, imo, and the exhaust will exit too far forward, but they have some small conventional cans with stainless, al, or carbon skin. Anyone try something similar? If they were approached to build a mid-pipe to convert to a single can, would there be much interest?
There are some other options out there. I picked up a mint l/h/s/ Staintune muffler for a VTR1000 very cheap. Had a new mid pipe made by a local motorcycle exhaust fabricator for $250. Loved the result and a lot cheaper than FMF etc.
