Advise on Exhaust - sorry if it has been asked before

Post by De_Godfather »

Hi All,

Having recently purchased a 50th Anniversary VTR1000F it has come with a set of Road Legal Remus Cans, However one of the mod's that I really do want is a Fruity exhaust note (Loud!) I am also thinking High Level, I don't really want to go down the route of dynojetting just a Simple Exhaust Can upgrade and maybe a drop in K&N Air Filter.

Any advice would be appreciated and also I am open to any 2nd hand cans anyone maybe wanting to sell.

BTW Hope you all have a great xmas !

If you put in a K&N air filter, you're gonna have to dynojet as these bikes don't like airbox changes otherwise. And it will cost quite a bit to get it jetted perfectly for the K&N..

As for exhausts, I'll let someone who knows their stuff answer that :lol:

Remus do a high level exhaust for the 50th model
If you were to get a set it would keep it looking as it should .
And as the little one says don't fit a k&n they are crap just stay with a standard .
If you do change the cans keep the Remus for when you sell it just to keep it original
