Alternative can to Scorpion?
#1
Hi all, have been riding my 03 Fazer thou for a week and am finding it a bit difficult to live with the Scorpion can that came with the bike - it's a bit too loud for my liking.

Judging by the photo, there isn't any way of fitting a DB killer as there was on a Scorpion I had on an old DRZ supermoto.

I'm doing a 2k European trip in the summer and would like a can that's a bit less intrusive....any suggestions?

Thanks guys, I have seen those on eBay so definitely an option. I presume they're for road use with the DB killer and would pass the mot without any probs?

Cheers

I'd also look at Fuel and at MTC Exhausts.  Very well made cans, good value for money IMHO.

Why not put the standard can back on for your trip if you still have it. If you don't, they are cheap as chips on Ebay ??
Yamaha Fazer 'the only bike you'll ever need' maybe ???

Thanks will have a look at those as well. I've seen the Fuel ones on eBay.

Keep an eye on ebay, you can pick up a standard can for under £40, they come up on here as well from time to time.

how loud are those delkvics?


I do a 25 mile stint on the motorway to work and got fed up with the BBBRRRAAAAAAAAAAA when on the fireblade, I want something fruitier than std but not over loud


Was thinking of a simmi/SP but not sure about the length, 350 seems the norm

The Fuel can I have on mine isn't overly loud - nice burble around town, but doesn't try to murder your ears under WOT at high revs. Being young and completely ignorant of my hearing, I wouldn't mind it a little louder, so it would probably suit someone not wanting something too loud.

My Beowulf on my 600 is pretty damn loud though... considering putting it on the thou, but the only thing that stops me is that it's not in as great condition as my Fuel one Sad

I bought a set of Venom cans (Motad) off ebay for my thou v strom and well happy with build quality. They have 2 removable baffles one at front and one at rear, so you could mess about until you get required noise levels.I think motad are selling them cheap for a new range about to be produced. Only £103 delivered! Here is a link -

If it's broken, it's not fixed.
