Best cans

Post by scrumps »

Probably been asked 8,000 times. Not looking for more power, just the best rumble. What cans by unanimous verdict... could be controversial, will give it a month and count the votes!

I would say Scorpion can's too, but not the carbon ones as apparently they don't cope with the big Vee twin exhaust pulses to well,

Anything good to say about the DanMoto cans?

The round ones are the loudest while the ovals are a touch quieter.

Other than that it's the old "you get what you pay for" :thumbup: :beer:

No. Cheap shite, very thin not really carbon, carbon. Very loud apparently with a silly design of baffel that fits in the lick pipe end of the can.

Most replacement cans are a lot lighter than the standard ones.
That's half of where the performance gain is.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

True but when you've spent $3500 in parts already it makes it difficult to spend another $500 to $800 for a set of cans. :cry: :Wall:
All in time I guess. :Whistle:

I have GRmoto cans, look amazing, sound even better and have a removable muffler for those super loud days! Can get them brand new on eBay for a very decent price. Easy to fit as well. Well worth a look! (Also almost 10kg lighter then the originals!)

Here’s the before and after sounds (a small speaker won’t do it justice)

$588 for the set and seeing your video they sound good too.
I bookmarked these for looking at them again in late spring as I want to see what the bafflectomy sounds like on the stock cans.
I'm all for weight savings so these will be considered.
Thanks for the video and reply. :thumbup:

Hello everyone. I have some Mivv tubes, which they say are carbon. The sound without db Killer is unique. BrutalImageImage

Drill a few small holes around the outlet pipe mounting plate will give you a bit more noise without going too loud at no cost (unless loud is what you are after) :)
