Exhaust

What is the most important factor when shopping for a new exhaust?

I would put an all of the above, but that spoils things because everybody picks that one.

It has to compliment the bike....finish is important to me. Most enable the bike the sound great. Power...well that takes some tuning with any of them.

For me it was sound, then it was manufacture. I wanted quality and that is why I chose Remus. The next item on my list is Galfer wave rotors then re-jet. It might seem backwards but I have a warped right front rotor.

I like the sound, my neighbors hate me. I set off all the car alarms as I heading down the street.

I'm defenitely about the power - however looks do come in to play, and the sound (oh the sound - like a stock car ripping down a tunnel..), now that makes it choice. Gotta' go with the power though (Iguess weight comes in to play w/ that too, huh/...)

Talking

I removed the baffles from my Remus cans and the Hawk sounds even better. The weather was nasty this evening so I can't wait until the morning to take it out and open it up.
