Hello all! It's time for me to swap out exhaust on my Fz 10. I'm looking for the best sounding and performing 3/4 titanium out there, The three I've strongly been considering we're the:
Austin Racing GP1R
RaceFit Black edition
And the Akrapovic 3/4
I'm looking for a decently loud idle, And something that's by no means quite. Especially when in the throttle, I'm worried the Austin Racing is just going to be a bit to loud and drone like. While the Akrapovic is going to be to quite for my taste, I wish I could see both exhaust in person and hear them first hand. However I would like to know everyones personal take on this and what exhaust do you have on your bike?
(Side note I have R1 headers going on whenever I get a 3/4 picked out they are sitting ready for action!)

Here is a quick vid, competition werkes 3/4. Real throaty and then just screams at high rpm. You get used to the drone. Only problem is it's not titanium, but it still looks really good.

(Side note I have R1 headers going on whenever I get a 3/4 picked out they are sitting ready for action!) Love my Yoshimura Alfa T. It’s sound is stupid awesome! It’s very loud under throttle, but it mounts further back than the Austin Racing. I luv the way the midpipe is close to the frame so u don’t get a gap like some exhaust. According to 2wdw with there flash it’s makes some of the highest horsepower numbers at 153hp.   |

That sounds absolutely amazing. But why does it have to be stainless!  |

They look tits, but I don't know if I can justify it being it's more than all three I was looking at. |

You really have me considering not doing titanium haha. Do you by chance have any pictures of the inside the muffler? I'm interested on what it looks like, Also how is the stainless coloring? Last time I bought a bike that had stainless it was super brown and orange. |

I'll grab a few pictures when I get off work. The inside has browned some but the outside is a nice golden color. It really looks good for a stainless exhaust.

The yoshi costed me $672 shipped to the door. Mine is stainless. You can get them in titanium for around $1200 I think. |

I get lots of compliments on the exhaust, the welds just make it look insane. And those are woodcraft rearsets, cheap, look good, and feel amazing.

The rear sets maybe down the road I'll get a set I've never had an after market set before. I'd get it just for the black color match lol. |

Heads up if you ever wanna run an active tune on ur bike, I don’t see the bung on the midpipe to mount the sensor. I’m running active tune on my bike with my Yoshimura. |

I'm going with a flash for it, Don't plan on getting any on board auto tuner. Hopefully I don't need it! |

Do you still have your O2 sensors, or did the werkes come with plugs? |
