I like low level pipes as keeps the original looks. high level better if doing trackdays for ground clearance.(not that that would bother me)

I was thinking with the lows + clip ons + tail chop it would look pretty cool. I love the shape on those Mivv's

If you can fit the X over- plus I would go for them, I think it would give it a really classy reto cafe racer look.

Second choice would be the Oval Classics in CF and have them high. I think you look a bit more sporty and aggressive (like I use to have :D) (I think these oval cans look better the sill moto ones which are round too)

It looks like the new mivv's have there decals riveted on now :( I much prefer the clean lines without any stickers on exhausts

I'd go for high level sils myself, but you pays your money you makes your choice

It's not just the make but the sound, colour, length?

I like high level (and have them) but I prefer the photo of the low level. Just depends what the rest of your bike looks like.

My bike is the one at the top with the Termi's. Except it now has one of those short tail things.

[Sensible mode ON] I might just leave it because £400/500 will be better spent on other things I think [Sensible Mode]

Here's mine high level's are so cool as long as they don't look like wheelbarrow handles!

Low level Mivv is my choice - why ... I prefer the Monsters with low level cans my S4 has low Termis and my Z has a Mivv GP (awesome sound and a most impressive flame when required).

You may need to remap as the length and other characteristics of the Mivv are quite different (I have a custom map via a PCIII on the Z).

Also you should be able to sell your Termis which should help with reducing the cost of the Mivvs (I bought mine direct from Mivv Italy - much cheaper) :mand:

Last thought - why don't you just low level your termis? New link pipes and Bob's your aunty's husband???

Gonna get contreversial here(just a bit!), I love the look of Hi level pipes but have to say that I dont like the look of the Termis. Its not the can they look fantastic, its the link pipe and those carbon guards, it just seems to stretch the bike which is sound with a full length tray but not with a shortened rear end. Ive got Leo Vincis which I love the look of but still want to shorten but If I had a choice Id swop in a heartbeat for Hi termis and shorten that link pipe!! can hear the sound now. If you do go low level, deffo go stubby route it is a trend but a damn good one and does open up the rear end of Monsters with no hoop.

Azhar, why don't you look into having the Termis shortened? Low level cans can touch the ground when you start to lean the bike over a bit more
I think the titanium termis are the best looking cans, but are a bit too long. Gilps cut down the carbon Termis on his S2R. I am sure you would be able to do the same with yours.

The problem with high level termis (as big pete pointed out) is the link pipes

They are long which makes the can start further back. Cutting the cans down to achieve a similar effect to Sils, would leave them looking realy short and stubby. They would also be extremely loud without some kind of Db killer fitted.

As a rule monsters don't (IMO) look good on high termi's with chopped tails

My S4 came with hi level Termis which I love (dont have a tail chop), but I prefer the look of the lower pipes. To me the hi level cans make the bike look taller, cafe racer, whereas the low ones make the bike appear more like a low slung and relaxing ride...

I've got the short tail on and changed the indis so I think it looks a little better now. I'll get some pics up sometime

Mine has low level shortened Termis, only because his nibs was going to put them on the VMax then changed his mind. The Termis had been bought for mine and for some reason didn't fit so he chopped them down to go under the seat of the max then decided against them and suddenly as if by magic they fitted mine:confused: They were awfully loud and had to have DB killers put in, but I quite like them although I think I'd like them even shorter. I like the really stubby Campbell ones but they'd be way too noisy.
