Default Taylormade Exhausts

Finally received my Taylormade exhaust and installed it this afternoon. The exhaust note is much deeper and richer than the stock and she pulls like she never did before through the first three gears.

Just thought I would share.

Drove next to one this morning on the way home from the gym and he gave me a thumbs up...so maybe not.

I was once considering a Gixxer just to do this. Forget outdated underseat pipes. Underbelly exhausts are the sheit!

I had a Ducati 748 with Termi slip ons and really liked the undertail look and there are some manufacturers that have some really cool looking exhausts, like Laser with the four pipes similar to the MV Agusta's. I've heard a lot of manufacturers are going away from undertails to get the weight lower to the ground, so undertail exhausts may soon be something of the past.

MV Agusta is showing its age. It's heavy tail is so turn-of-the-millenium. Plus higher center of gravity.
