but he might not even be using the small on to full potential.
Yeah, but then he'd have EVEN MORE potential that he isn't using, which is a way better deal. Get the slip o... I mean bigger bell.

I seen the thread name in the forum list and thought, "What the f#*! is stumbling around in Verm's head now?"
Then I saw Kal's name on it, so I figured it must be alright.
Then I read his first post and thought, "How did Verm sign-on under Kal's name?"
And that was pretty funny to me.
Then Verm, totally confirming my opinion of him, rips off a list of mods he wants for his bike......
I think I may have just shat my pants.

If I could get a slip on that retained the stock heatshield on my bike I'd consider it, but I'd have to hear it first. I wouldn't mind having a little louder and deeper exhaust note. Though, I'd also want to test ride it to see how it affected the powerband. LoL, I'm not big on spending 300-1000 without knowing exactly how it'll affect the bike. Hell, I don't even want to change the handlebars (or grips for that matter) without testing a pair first, and that's like $30.

Heatshield? WTF?
hehehe i love underslung exhaust.
I want this Arata slipon:

They claim that with tuning it'll get me 70hp or so... Stock is anywhere from 65-67 from what i've gathered. Full sys is like 73hp with tuning. The full sys alone is $1,000. Where $600 gets you a full leo-vince sys.... oh the choices.

The shiny metal thing you see is nothing more then a bolted on sheet of stainless steel that prevents a passenger or saddlebag from roasting against the hot exhaust. The real pipe is nothing more then a flat black cylinder with a metal end.
That Arata pipe is hot though, might have to take a gander at their website...

It's also "procreating" $700. Guess I'll be getting the Leo Vince slip on for HALF that at some point. Hell, i may go full system for the $700 pricetag on the LV. And my bike is special. Even the 06 GSX-R 750 pipe by them uses a conventional can. So they look like all the other cans out there. And cost twice as much.
