Title: 650 standard can
Post by: Kayaker413 on June 26, 2015, 16:39:12
Afternoon folks,
I like the look of the standard exhaust but it would be nice to get a better note out of the bike. Is there anything can be done to the standard can?

I intend de-catting the glee when I get chance ;)

De-cat, is that a cut and shut job?

To elaborate on the original post. Is it worth decating the factory can?
I like the standard look but I am aware the standard system is usually made from special extra heavy material for no particular reason!

Stock systems tend to be heavy, compared to aftermarket but I too like the look of the stock system.
 I have decatted bikes in the past with small but positive results :)
