After all my support of 17 -19 'standards' I have voted 'aftermarket' on the basis of what I would choose with no financial restraints. Very keen on the Arrow megaphone recently posted, but wouldn't part with £600-plus for it. Much prefer the standards on the 04 - 07 because some aftermarkets extend too far beyond the rear end.
Best looking exhaust I've seen in a long time and it has completely changed my mind on sticking with the standard which I also really like! they've got everything right, length is just right, doesn't look too short and stubby and it looks just like a moto gp exhaust I saw it first Nigel so even if you buy it before me it's still technically copying! Everyone will call you 'copy cat cushion Nigel'
I voted as if the question was for a 17-19 blade... Standard. Love that new standard can, its a nice size and finish. Don't like the 08-16 Standard can but the alternative aftermarket options are pretty crap too. @tuktuk's is the exception.... Still drooling over that one.
Yes, that's the one but with a different pic as post 77 on the Di's SP thread. Cheers Also mentioned that at £620 I won't be lashing out, so have no fears about losing any 'exclusivity'! I'm just happy enough to have my SPECIAL cylinder head and BIGGER valves and FORGED pistons, etc!!.
17+ I love the long Akra as per the bsb etc. Think the Austin racing gp1 suits the 08-16 best but I couldn't live with the noise.
