We both cant vote on this, so:

CK - custom made SS low level cans (originals packed away in the garage, where the last ones were)

AK - custom one off complete system, with twin shortie carbon cans.

also cut down std cans somewhere in Bluefoots pad (or at local dump by now!!!)

:burnout:

Did have standard cans (new bike), but I got fed up with following JMo, and only being able to hear her bike.

So, I bought her Carbon Can Co cans off her, and they are the most amazing sounding things! Mind you, still can't hear myself on rideouts, 'cos JMo's now got an under-engine exhaust....

Ooh, I so love waking up my sleepy village on summer Sunday mornings!

105db low level aluminium oval Sils.

I don't like cardboard fibre! Wanted something that still looked standard, so I don't know where that fits into the poll.

I got standard cans on mine still. I only got my bike in the summer and I am saving desperately hard for some "loud" ones.
I am thinking of not feeding the kids for a week or two.

I get a good sound in my garage though - I have to use my imagination!

High-level Carbon Sils, sound lurvely! My elderly Italian lady neighbour loves em too ... she looks through the curtains and waves at me... bless! However, my other neighbour, who is the anti-christ, doesn't like them.

Viper stainless steel straight through race cans. Bought 'em from ColinC on this here website - waheey!

EVERYBODY knows when I'm on my way. The car park attendants at the multi storey behind my office have earplugs for when I start her up at nights. So far not a pull from plod but I'm sure it's only a matter of time. "Loud pipes save lives Officer!"

Gotta change 'em for a day or two in April as it's MOT time
