is where I found it. Like I said, not sure if its for duals.. but I would contact them.. and if it ain't duals, there are ways to make this duals and save $2000. very possible. I'm just looking out for an ORG member. Get the best bang for the buck and put the $2000 in more things.

Good luck Don in your findings.

its duals but slip ons. they are still charging 1300-1400 for slip ons on that site.

i would be inclined to spend less on the exhaust on put money into suspension. An ohlins sticker will look a lot cooler than a $3800.00 yosh.

+1000

The case of buyers remorse is gonna' be huge...........

Oh definitely. For $3400 he can get a Brocks full exhaust, PC/ECU hack, dyno tuned and have plenty left for other mods.

Don - I think you may have made it to a real comfortable spot in life!

I hope I get to see and hear it someday. Enjoy.

 

[knobby]

I hope you buy it
I hope you love it and enjoy it
Your money and I won't knock the price cuz I'll be first to admit I have bought many things in my life others thought were too expensive !

Hell ya!

 

[GoldenChild]

are you insane??????????????????/ you can get that yoshi exhaust for $1029.00

better keep on shopping. I'm sorry don, but you need to keep shopping, i looked at this exhaust long ago, there are more threads on it.. They told me the same crap. All msrp pricing.. No one pays msrp.

Bayside has em.. Do a search on the org.. There is a link to their site. $1029 for a kit.. Not sure if its dual.. You'll have to call them to find out.

Personally.. And strictly personal.. That kind of money, definitly a turbo kit.. Hands down.

definitely not the same system.... I had a 2002 zx6r with muzzys $2700 ti system on it and it was night and day vs their regular system.

I'll hook you up like before if you do go that route...

 

[k9ill5a]

Wow. That's pricey. I would put that money towards a stage I turbo or by the brocks ti system and save some money. Then again it's your money, do what YOU want with it.

LOL. I will be doing ohlins forks and mono-shock but prolly not till next spring. I want this exhaust because it is unique.

Thanks for all the positive comments and all the opinions too guys, but, I haven't even bought the bike yet. Prolly going to be mid September before I can get that done. The bike will be cash, we don't finance anything anymore.

Ok,
I spoke with Yoshimura early in the week about the exhaust system pictured here. I got an email today. The exhaust is $3450 with half due at time of ordering AND the price is subject to change based on the current exchange rate. ETA will be early September. I will be getting the bike in the next 90 days and will order the exhaust shortly after.

Don

Btw, if I did the math correctly that full dual system weighs about 14.2lbs.

:wtf: Whooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaa wait a friend like my GenII R77 for his GenI what he do was that he got a pair of used carbon slip-on R77 for $500 and talked with other friend that know how to weld and then we measure cut and weld and his bike looks nice.The point here is that you can get a pair of tri oval slip on of a GenI if don’t came for GenII and make it fit to your bike or get a Vance and Hance header and get more power with a lot less money.

And other thing with that kind of money I prefer to make it TURBOOOOOOOO so your bike can do the sound

where do i sign up for a $3400 turbo?

 

[Don Hardcastle]

I am not a big fan of a turbo on anything, especially a bike. Love superchargers, but not turbos.

[RACER_X]

i'd recommend spending the $3400 towards a bike............crazy!

in the end, it'll still look like a cheaper yosh exhaust, i'll take a akra ti exhaust and C/F bits.

 

[skydivr]

Will you adopt me?

Very cool, but that is gonna hurt like heck if you drop it..

I'm going to see if I can find pics of my last busa so you can see that I am a bit of an elitist. I waited 10 weeks and spent $240 on a windscreen just because it was what I wanted.

whatever floats your boat, it'll still look like a cheap yosh to 95% of the bikers out there, the other 5% would have alot better things to spend all the $, whether performance or looks.

 

[hckyguy1]

Ill be honest, I dont think an exhaust is worth paying $3,400 on, you could do alot of things for that kind of money. But, that being said, its your money, spend it how you want to. I will say if you do get it im sure youll be the only one around with it thats for sure, but god if I were you id be scared as **** to drop my bike and scratch the cans.

Don

It wasnt an MRA was it ?

 

[Ruben]

Why not a turbo kit for that kinda money ? Atleast there you'll get a increase in power if thats what you're after....

My advice... don't do it ... but it's your money

 

[m_ridgeway]

an elitist on a busa is an oxymoron.
