I do have a pipe bender , bends up to 1 1/4" steel..not that i am planning on using it for this.

mmmmmmmm.....so you planning on putting a collector/silencer where the center stand was and then a tube up under the seat splitting into four.....sounds good but iam not too sure if theres enough room by the shock or would you go up the outside ? not as nice looking......interesting project :) .......are you able to bend your own tube ?... are you peicing it together ?....or using pre formed bends ?......lots of questions i know :o ..was thinking of making my own exhaust for the project 600.....
I'm doing that for Project Fazer's (the proper one! ;) ) exhaust - twin underseat R1 pipes.
I was planning on preformed bends, myself. We'll see when I get to that stage.c

Smartarse. :lol
I'm in touch with the engineering shop for the swingarm, when that's done, it's tail fairing followed by pipes. Getting there!

Hardest part will be threading the pipe between shock, linkage and frame.......wonder if smaller diameter pipe will work or will that affect performance....last thing you want with a blue bike :lol

Nice reply exupnut..........soon down to your level :lol

Two things: Did you see that really nice cafe racer 600 with the spoked wheels? He'd run his exhaust around the outside of the swingarm - looked a bit bizarre, but seemed to do the job!
I was considering using oval shaped pipe for that section (before I went SSSA - makes life easier there), as that preserves the all-important area, whilst giving you reduced impact on the width fore and aft of the pipe.

Turn the swing arm into the silencer, its been done a few times in the past and looks well cool.
Pics?
Also, have you considered what the Panigale and the Kawa ER-6 do for their exhausts? If yours is purely underneath, not rising up between the wheel & the bike, that may be an easier mod.

R1 headers from 04-06 de cat link pipe (slimer that stock) r1 swinging arm caliper and hanger
I'd go Dan moto rear pipes as slim and cheap
Fit this then see were it all touches and mod accordingly
This would b my route

haha,, fucking stainless steel cooking trays,,either be good for a meetup bbq or cook an egg on route :lol
I now have to source some thin stainless welding rods and try welding the stuff, if i can make a can of upper and down side then they can be partable to try different gas routes and different sound dampening methods.

cooking pans |
I could go into catering,,about eight of the huge stainless pans :lol

Foccin ell slim, that looks rather the correct size for a DB killer doesn't it but wheres the perforations or honeycomb....i would doubt that it is from the downpipes.......if you've already got your DB killer then has somebody else in the past managed to drop their DB killer down the exhaust with their previous end can and not bothered to fish it out? :o
Deary me if that was the case then it has been seriously hampering your power....perhaps that explains why you are so slow :b .
I'm gonna put my DB killer back in as i've heard about how removing them could affect back pressure so in my quest to sort out my starting issue it ill be replacing the baffle and also raising my idke rpm.
Has that piece of metal got any sign of welding marks etc on it ie has it been a fixed db kilker & someone has decided to cut it out and as they cut it it dropped in?

Maybe it was used as a drift to smash out the Cat.....but somehow got left in....not sure why that would be but just throwing it out there.
