Default New exhaust for my RC51

I swapped exhaust systems with someone for a Moriwaki Titanium high mount for my Sato Low Ti low mounts. I knew the Mori's are a bit heavier, but the high mounts look nicer to me now that I had the low mounts on my bike for 2 years.

I took these pics a couple of days ago, my other ride is a 2003 TL-R.

Daydreaming of next spring already.
Happy Holidays,
Ken

Thanks Vin
both bikes sound great, but the TL-R has the RC beat in the sound dept. The TL-R has a slightly deeper sound and has to be heard on the track to be appreciated.
Happy Holidays

One of the things I enjoy about the twins is the balanced look of the dual exhaust. One might argue individuality is having a v-twin with a single side exhaust, another might be tired of having his TL-R mistaken for a GSXR because of it.
I dont ride to race, not concerned with it, love doing my track days though
Happy Holidays
Ken

Which bike do you like better? By buddy has a Superhawk and is looking at both TLR's and RC51's. Moriwaki looks way better hands down then the Sato's.

Mori makes an excellent product. Check out LDH's exhaust page for some more info on them.
