have any of you ever seen or heard of an exhaust kit for a street bike (sport bike) that is just an open pipe? i saw a zx-10r yesterday with on open pipe and it sounded sick. i want to do that to the fz6 or if we sell it to whatever i buy. i cant find a kit anywhere so i was wonderin if any of you knew how to do this or where to get a kit.

Click on the "upgraded exhaust" about half way down the page.

Then click on open

I have heard these before also, yet as they sound sick, on an FZ6 it is uneeded. If you think, they need that increased flow that an open-pipe can provide for a reason.... Maybe forced induction, or they are using a heavily modded engine. All the bikes that I have seen with an open-pipe on them are drag raced at Moroso or something, and also the pipes are made, you can't buy something like that.... There are so many noise and emission laws that the government puts on aftermarket "performance" parts, I am pretty sure that government would'nt pass an open straight pipe for normal every-day public-road use. Basically if you want one make one, if you can't then go to an exhaust shop and tell them too..... ;)

i just want to make the bike sound good. it is fast enough. it is just really quiet. that zx-10r sounded like it was at 10,000 rpms with an aftermarket pipe when really it was at like 4,000. it looked pretty cool too.
