I've just put a Blueflame one on mine. £165 delivered, so pretty reasonable.

I've got a Scorpion Carbon race can (inc link pipe and strap). It was only on the bike one summer and is pretty much mint. I can sort some pics if you're interested - how might 60 plus p+p sound, if the pics look good?

I'm away till Sunday lunchtime now, so cant get the pics up till then.

mtc can for me - looks good and sounds pretty decent too.


circa £140 if I remember

A race can  will kill low down to mid range power. sure it will sound faster but i doubt if it will be.
I have tried varoius on my 600's same result . Some days the sound is exhilarating other days annoying !

 :rollin no way a I've got a Scorpion can I when to look at getting a custom can made for £180 the guy said save you brass its a good can you have got on there .if i made a can for you to be honest with you it may sound loader but thats it no more added power to the bike he said the gas flow rate on a Scorpion can is the best one for the fzs 600 so i put my cash back in my pocket and spend it  :)

They apparently had problems a couple of years ago, but as I had used them many years before that and was pleased I thought I'd give them a go again. I have to say that I had the delivery date changed three times (which only amount to a week later in total) and I had to keep pestering them. The reason they gave was that the link pipe they had got from the polisher had to be sent back to be done properly (same excuse all three times). If you use them, pay by credit card and pester if needed. 8)

@bikerboys, so what's the score with the custom jobbie, you didn't bother in the end???
I thought you'd already bought the slip on?

I thought it would.  :lol
The thing about exhausts that are too noisy is that they're a novelty at first but after a while can get kind of annoying, especially on a long run, and they can attract unwanted attention as well.
