Does anyone know if this underseat exhaust system is available? only ever seen it on one bike as in pictures. Also does anyone know the wearabouts of this or the silver/orange bike?

Ok so how do I upload images here?[/list]

There ya go
Sorry, no idea where it is. I've seen an exhaust like this on an SB6 (not too far from me) but that was totally custom built which I suspect this one is Wink

After having a good look at the pic's, I still can't tell you where it is Laughing

Thanks for posting up the pictures, thought I updated my profile earlier, but obviously didn't do something right.

Much as I try I can't get the idea of an SB6R out of my head, always checking up on ones for sale but never seen another with that type of yoshimura exhaust.

In the japanese blogs thread i started, you will see a similar exhaust on a 6R, a Corse one, looks great.

Cheers

I think this exhaust is a made-up special with a Yoshimura badge on it, i.e. it's not a Yoshimura product, albeit it certainly looks the part.

Moto Corse in Japan will indeed make up either slip-ons or a full system in titanium. Their stuff is exquisitely made and weighs slightly less than the soot round the ends of your original mufflers! Unfortunately, the price reflects the fact that you could stick it on your wall as a piece of art -which is just as well, as you'd probably have to sell the bike to buy it!

To the man yearning for an SB6R - do it! The beast is much maligned for its little eccentricities, but when you've got one right, there's nothing else on the road comes close.

That bike was owned by a friend of mine, has long since been sold. The exhaust was made at a bespoke exhaust maker in Bradford, called Zorstec. No idea if they are still operating, they did lots of fighter exhausts and bizzare pipes. Andy was the guy who used to run it, but he moved overseas.

Last I knew they had moved into making car exhausts.

It certainly isn't Yoshimura!!!!!!
