Hi
I am a new member and have recently become the proud owner of a 2012 FZ8. I have been wanting one for ages and would like to add a few things to the bike to make it my own so to speak. First thing I want to change is the standard can... any suggestions on what works best with this bike? I've read a few blogs that say some cans can even reduce HP... (bike is black).
Cheers in advance for any advice.

There is some info in here. Theres been nothing much said recently, about anything.

Thanks Phil. I'll check out the link and post a pic once I decide and fit. Cheers

I looked at a few of the pipes mentioned... but I've narrowed my options down to three pipes... each have their own distinct appeal.
Yoshi R77D - carbon
Hurric Pro2 - black
Shorty Short MotoGP pipe - black - concerned about legality regarding DB's on this one.
Anyone have any of these on their bike or know anything about them? Any feedback would be appreciated. Cheers.

Have a look in the sales and wants section for a very nice exhaust. Can split too and just sell the can. http://foc-u.co.uk/index.php/topic,18743.0.html (http://foc-u.co.uk/index.php/topic,18743.0.html)

I have purchased and fitted the Akropovic system Andy had for sale and this has transformed the bike for me, The flat spot between 5k & 6k has now gone and the sound is amazing - highly recommended system. :D
-
Aah, you beat me to it Igeese... I was considering that system Andy was offering. Akrapovic are a quality make and that was a great deal. I'm glad you are happy with it. I snooze I lose I guess.

I have 2 exhaust systems available if you are interested ......
A high level variant (Holeshot link pipe with an SP Engineering carbon end can) or a Mivv Suono carbon system ....... both in excellent condition and both make a huge difference to the bike
good luck

Hi Smurfbud,
Thanks for the info bud.. I am not keen on the high can setup and I am unfamiliar with the Mivv Suono system, perhaps send me an image and idea of the price on the carbon one. Cheers.
-
I was looking at the Mivvi can looks good not sure on the sound etc ,
-
Movv sound is superb .... either motoGP or Suono ..... just depends on what look you prefer .... check out U tube offerings
I have both available for sale if anyone is interested :)
