Hi guys,
looking for a replacement exhaust for my 2001 gen 1 Fazer 1000
.
I did have a quick look for a tread for this in the search but didn't found anything helpfull.
I don't want to spend anymore than about £250 on one and would prefer one with a removable baffle and not too noisy.
I have had Leovince and Fuel exhausts in the past and liked them also Remus.
So any thought or recommendations would be great :)

Akrapovic are the best exhaust system, but will cost £300 + unless you buy a used one. Scorpion cans are mid priced and pretty good. I've got a stubby delkevic on mine, but the quality isn't quite as good as akrapovic, scorpion, fuel, arrows etc... But it was quite cheap and it was the look i was after.

Well spotted Luke.. It was an old pic before i fitted those lovely frame plugs i got from you :lol

Hey Nickodemon. Slight change of subject but what brand is your front Fender Extender ? I am looking for one that will adhere without having to put screws through my mudguard which it looks as if you have achieved.
Awesome looking Gen 1 by the way 8)

i stuck my front mudguard extender with tiger seal. no problems thus far.... i figured that if it's strong enough to hold body kit bits on cars......

I used a german make of silicone sealant that i used years ago and it's still attached ;) [size=78%] I will check the garage tomorrow to see if it's still there, as i can't remember the make. The hugger is a pyramid. [/size]

I've had Carbon Can Co slip-ons on mine, they were pretty good. Worth a look?
You can see the pics on my album :)

I've just got that for my Fazer 8 off flea bay. Looks good quality but haven't fitted it yet, but I reckon it will be nice sounding and loks good in pics I have seen of it. :)
Glad you like the carbon can ones tho, they both looked good on the bikes and sounded good too.

I read a post on the aprilia forum about Mivv exhausts. One guy has pics of faults and also the response from Mivv. Probably worth a look if considering buying one. Here is link - http://www.apriliaforum.com/forums/showthread.php?263933-MIVV-Exhaust&highlight=mivv (http://www.apriliaforum.com/forums/showthread.php?263933-MIVV-Exhaust&highlight=mivv)

I had a Mivv on mine for several years and it was really well made. I wouldn't let one whining internet post put me off buying one. :)

They certainly look like a nice piece of kit. I only mentioned the link because i read it recently and thought i would post it, so people could see it.. I wasn't trying to discourage anyone buying them, as i have never owned one and i realise that forums can have good/bad reviews..
