Yoshi RS5 is in.Will install it on Saturday.Slip on carbon w/carbon cone.Someone poisioned my enjoyment saying that they thought it stuck out to much from the rear and that stock pipe looked better.I have seen plenty of pics and I thought it looked cool.So someone please reasure me Its looks as good in real life as it does in pics.I spent months making this decision and I hope I made the right choose.

Just finished installing my RS5.I installed at my parents house and their neighbor stopped by while the rear of bike was all disassembled.I really was not in the mood to bullshit with this guy because it was getting late and it looked like it was going to rain.Finally this guy says "I will let you go I have things to do"I told him that I wanted to finish up the bike.He responded like a smart ass"You aint getting this thing back together".Well I did and it looks and sounds great.Did a little fly by this neighbors house just to let him know I was rolling.

Got the rs-5 from motorcycle pro shop. $100 cheaper than anywhere else i could find it. Installed it the same day w/only the small problem of running out of enough heat tape to compleatly cover the plastic. Took about 2.5 hours and sounds great !! Didn't feel like a big power gain, but the noise was all i was after anyway. Got some extra heat tape from O'reilly's Auto Parts for a couple bucks.

I've got the stainless steel RS-5 and I love the sound of it. Install was a snap and I think the silver accents I've added to my 04 all-black 1KRR look pretty sharp. Black and silver baby!!!
