normal can vs stubby can

[charlie zxr]

looking into buying a new exhaust but not sure on which style to get.
any thoughts?
what is better for performance between normal sized exhausts and stubby ones?
cheers

97% of the exhaust power depends on the headers , collector and link pipe.

Short cans will rev out quicker so desirable on high power high tuned race bikes like MotoGP

Longer cans produce more torque and again you will find these on race bikes in AMA , BSB and WSBK

Down to personal choice on our bikes as the difference is marginal - I have tried

My FIII system has a long can and is fantastic and would never consider bulldoging as I am upsetting someones research !

My BEET to me seems better with the short MotoGP with DB killer than a full length can with no DB killer - I also like the look better

So don't worry about the can - worry about the system !

MM!

iv just put a stainless steel set of downpipes on it.
i want something that makes it sound brilliant and increases the speed alittle

just got a micron i think these called ..before it had no can on it at all sounded like a 1000cc on cocaine and steroids and like a plonker when i was at the lights a woman doing something with her face lipstick are something i thought it would be great idea to rev the bike to about 6rpm shook her up as she jumped didnt get much else as the traffic started moving ....but yeah got a can todat still nice but not even 1/4 as loud at least i shouldnt get pulled

I've got used to not running an end can... As much as it draws too much attention to me, it sounds fucking nuts! Though I am looking at a Racefit or Scorpion GP1 type can, just to numb the sound a touch!

but my god does it sound sweets

Get a Racefit Growler. Although you'll probably have to get spring hooks welded to the downpipes as clamping titanium to stainless steel isn't the best way to do it, so they guys at Racefit tell me anyway:

ah so thats YOUR bike!!! i've seen that vid countless times, shame its not overly clear, love the look of it and the sound of it, exactly the can i want!

[bendog66]

certainly is. When it's built back up I'll put some better ones up. Unfortunatly I'm running out of cash so don't expect them soon

Can always send me the exhaust my friend lol
