Which slip-on?

I have the Blk 07 model. Looking at the carbon KR Tuned and Yoshi. I''m not too worried about the HP, I got a 1000. LOL. I''m looking for one for sound and looks mostly. Has a D&D on the old bike so not tryin to be deaf again. Any suggestions on those 2 or anyothers? Not Two Brothers, everybody and their mom has them.

Two Bro''s...
Looks good and has the best sound for a slip on IMHO.

I would go Yoshi. I had a leo Vince and loved it But I actually went out and bought a yoshi full system this time. Now one thing I have seen with two bros pipes is that we had a special one night at a shop here getting bikes put on the dyno. Everyone with a two bros pipe actually lost horse power. The reason for that is that there is that they loose back presure. If you want a loud pipe and don''t care about power then go that way but if you want to keep what power you got I would go yoshi.

The Yosh pipes for Honda are crap, they sound like crap and have no gains. Jardine is the way to go or KR Tuned.

... and <Yosh> have no gains.
You, sir, are misinformed. There are pipes with more gains than a yosh, but it still will give you more HP.
Sound is an opinion- I like the yosh. But that also depends what bike its on.

Actually, Arata and Akro will yield the most HP on the 1000RR, so I guess you could say they are the "Best"
Go with what you like. I bought a Scorpion becaus of the looks, uniqueness and cost. I''m happy with it.

Tried the new R77 on my 08 and it is crap, no gains and sounds like crap. I did a lot of research and spoke with the guy who dyno''d the bike and he verified Yosh was overated for Honda 1000''s. I have ran Leo Vince, 2 Bros, Yosh, KR Tuned and Jardine on my bikes and Yosh is by far the worst on the Dyno.

Ahhh, well I haven''t researched the ''08 at all. I was still talking 06-07. I have heard that the Jardines on the ''08s are really nice and good on the hp increase.

Not to hijack this thread too much, but I also recently got an 07 in blk/gry. I had a Two Brothers on my old 600rr and liked it for short trips. But in any distance riding you start to lose your hearing. I have been searching for an Arata slip-on in Black Matte or carbon fiber. But the prices are around $850+/-. I know why its higher price, but if anyone knows of a place or site that you can find them for cheaper, I''d appreciate it!
Also, those with experiance on Arata''s. Does the Oval come out crooked to the side instead of straight out? I''m still debating between the Oval vs Trap styles.

go for the crooked pipe it ads charater. i have the oval Sato. yeah its crooked, but it makes power that was the whole point of the pipe.
if all you want is something loud buy a d&d or harley it and have a muffler shop make a straight pipe.

2Bros have good sound but the quality sucks....
I put a LeoVince on my 06 1000rr, there was some hp gains and it looks and sounds good as well.

I really enjoy reading all the posts that people make about all the different brands of slipons. Its always along the lines of ''this brand is terrible, this brand is the best'' and there is always different views from each side of the fence.
Each bike has different production tolerences from the factory and will cause different results each time. This the majority of the time will not be a great difference but still be a small difference none the less.
With this being said, just cut down on the ''well my buddys friends moms sister told me this, so now I believe them that this exhaust sucks''. This way we can have alot more accurate of an information flow in the forums and less hearsay. More dyno results would be great as well.
I have had a couple of different exhausts put on the 3 bikes I have owned, with the most recent being a 2 bros exhaust on the 08 1000. I have not tried any of the others on the 08 and can only speak for myself on the 2bros pipe i have on now, but I dont understand the negativity from the majority of people that post about it. There is no loss to low end, it actually gains a bit imo, and a significant gain to the top end. I will try and get some dyno numbers put up this weekend from it.
Thank you

I just put a yoshi slip on on my 08 and it sounds awesome. I took her for her first ride today with it installed and she did not lose anything...I would say she feels lighter and stronger.

LOL, he said everyone has two bros when he has yoshi
I wont ever buy a yoshi ONLY for the fact that it''s so commercial. I see them EVERYWHERE, it''s like all the anime nerds decided to get bikes and liked the Japanese lettering (just kidding yoshi owners, dont take me seriously)
On a serious note though, exhaust has two purposes: Noise and power, both of which come at a monotary expense. I bought my bike used and it had a D&D already on it. I personally LOVE my exhaust for the reason that people take notice (especially when they think "hey, I''m going to do a blind lane change" then they hear me and think again)(that''s a good reason but the other is I simply like attention drawn by cars to the fact that i can smoke them without trying). To be COMPLETELY honest on the issue, do you REALLY need a couple more horses on your crotch rocket? (unless you race track)
I really dont know what the point of this post was now, I lost my train of thought with all those parenthesis
