Aftermarket exhausts - 2000 VFR

Hi. My new ride comes with Two Brothers slip ons plus the stock stainless.
I'm not wild about Two Brothers. My Japan racers were Akrapovic, Yosh or Graves. (Ducati don't count)
I'd like some advice on turn of the century systems. My top three apparently don't make a pipe or slip on for the 2000.
Thanks in advance.

 

Very few and far between for the 5 Gen (1998-2001) and most of those that are still available are of the "lower cost" variety. Didn't want to say "cheap" but for the most part you typically get what you pay for. That being said, eBay, Craig's list and forum classifieds are probably where you'll find more options, albeit discontinued/used parts. Of course, any slip on can be made to work, but you'll probably need to fabricate the mount and possibly the mid-pipe too. BTW, is your Two-Bros a high mount or low mount version? Carbon Fiber?

 

Hi mount version

 

Is it the carbon fiber version and if so would you be willing to sell it?

 

I have a Titanium Micron - which I really enjoy the low rumble - great sound without much irritation for others around you

I've also enjoyed the sound of the Staintune - and you can modify it quieter with a spud if you prefer

I personally liked the two brothers on a buddies 4th gen it was much louder than my Micron however...

Edit..I forgot about Hindle many good things about these never heard one on a VFR

 

On the subject of "cheaper" cans, I had a viper end can on my GPZ (EX) 500 and it sounded really good, not overlly loud but the tone was great,

For my VTEC I'll be getting a full delkevic system with the 8" mini cans, maybe this is another option to consider?

 

I got a Vance and Hines carbon fiber slip on that has since been discontinued. I had a friend help me with the mount (simple metal bar bolted to sub frame) and had the mid pipe custom bent at a muffler shop.

 

That's really nice Drewl.

Don't think they are CF - just look alike. But will sell when I find replacements.

 

Cool. No worries, in no hurry and I may have an alternative. Cheers.

 

I did the same thing with heat wrap on the midpipe. Saves the boots and decreases the hot foot.

 

My 5th gen. came with a high mount CF Micron pipe. I sold off the can and replaced it with a Supertrapp SS can.



I really like the look and sound. The main thing is that you can reuse your existing midpipe with any slip on muffler you like.

My 5th Gen came with a Leo Vince Ti high pipe on it. It's pretty mellow, not loud at all.

 

nice always liked the mellow yellow

i have added a leo vince on my vfr800 hi level of course love the sound track of the v4 singing under full power

 

This is off topic I know but I really like the look of your rims. When I see the black rim, in the previous pictures, and then see the natural aluminum color on yours, they look lighter and actually have better definition. I probably won't change mine anytime soon since I am lazy but I like the look a lot.

I have a Two Brothers can running a PCIII with Two Brothers map. It think it run a bit fat even with the map for the can. I like the sound.

 

hello - I installed a GPR high mount from Italy - I am very happy with how it turned out. I did an install write up.

You can serch on this topic or under my name.

If you want a well priced,good looking,great sound track (may get you into some hot water) then delkevic do a really nice carbon 200mm high level!
i have just bought the full exhaust system with that can for £350!! an absolute bargain,its beautifully made too.

 

Here are some pics of the GPR Highmount on my 1998 VFR - installed last year.

 

Those hi mount exhaust compliment the bike much more than the low ones do IMO. All very nice.
