What is your slip on of choice?

Good Evening, Hey everyone, looking for some opinions from R1 pros... Not to be sacreligious and mention another bike manufacturer in this forum, but I used to own an F2 and had a muzzy slip-on. I really like the sound of it. The idle and low end RPM was what really impressed me with the Muzzy. It didn't have a powerful high end scream like the Yoshi on my buddies bike, but that didn't bother me at all. I'm not too concerned with the performance ramifications of the pipe since I am strictly a leisure rider. Ok, so enough blabbering. What slip on does everyone like and can anyone make any comparisons to a Muzzy since that and Yoshi are really the only ones that I am familiar with? I have been reading quite a bit about the Akarapovic(sp?), but most of the references are to the performance increase... How does it sound and is it designed to work well with the R1? Thanks a bunch for everyone's opinion and I am looking forward to reading them! Cheers, Dominik (soon to be R1 owner...)

My persnal preferance for a slip on is a Lamb Skin french tickler...but thats just me:lol

oh ...and welcum...:hellobye

:lol :hellobye

Welcome. I have the 2 Bros. slip on but I think for the next bike it might be an Akra or a Micron

Thanks for all the replies... Lambskin, lol... I think the R1 would look kind of funny with one of those one it. Of course it would be unique :lol I think I'll probably go with the high mount Micron. Blue fade or scorched. The high mount looks sweet! Thanks again for the replies... Cheers, Dominik

Cheers, Dominik I had the Wileyco slip-on and it sounded sweet up in the revs and mellow below 6000rpm. My friend has a Yosh and that thing sound down right mean at any RPM.

I got a Devil shotgun slip-on, and it is sweet. It has two small cans so it gives it a nice sound @ any rpm. The only bad thing is you have to loose the stock turnsignals, but its not like thats a bad thing:rock

Would like input as to what others think. I have the choice of these 2 slip ons for my 2001 R1 and am looking for feed back PLEASE HELP!!!

Machsurfer.......:hellobye..........welcome aboard sir. This is my baby, pictured below, featuring the DEVIL polished high mount w/ full headers. :fact Member keep-up made a very valid point. Feel free to look through the forum, i.e. Product Reviews section, to find various threads containing info. on a myriad of pipes on members' bikes. You will get a good feel of what you are truly seeking. If there is a specific question you have on the DEVIL, do not hesitate to contact me at anytime..... scorpionnj@yahoo.com Good luck in your quest. ;)

:D Here she is again, tanning at the Jersey shore......DEVIL style.......:sneaky

I love my micron, but in my opinion their high mount sticks out too far behind the bike and the can looks too big to be that high. The devil looks realy good high mounted so does hindle.

D&D for me...........

Blue Flame for me. ~A

Yeh im with WETWORK999, ive had 2 blue flame cans, they are quite cheap but good quality. :yesnod Paul

and the sound is beasty.:rock

Scorpion

nice looking bike, how about some frame sliders. Send a PM to Earache. ~A

Leo Vince for me!!!!!

that Leo is SNAZZY

Originally posted by WetWork999 that Leo is SNAZZY is SNAZZY good?

I just got a 2 brotheres racing slip on i like it a lot so far its one of the cooleste looking pipes check out the 2 bro X metal high mount bolts on clean and sounds deep not loud.

I went with Akro Carbon Fiber. Sound is cool and not too loud. A little pricey though.

For quiet sound & perf. akro. For something a little more throaty and good quality and a good compromise between high and stanard heighth the "graves":yesnod :yesnod

tweak, can your scorpion support the rear pegs?

Which are the high mounts where you can keep the pessanger pegs?

Devil SB2 Slip-On :yesnod

Originally posted by tangun tweak, can your scorpion support the rear pegs? Yes it does. All the hardware is included with the slip on. I dont do much 2 up riding, so I will put them on only when I need them:hellobye

Here is a better pic of my pipe, notice the heal guard on it.. I didnt like it at first, but damn im glad it there now... Its a great pipe and I could not be more happy:)

Hello to my R1 brothers, i'm new to the forum. I was jus wondering if anybody has any opinions on the Black Widow exhaust?

Dude right before you might!!! lol :lol

Originally posted by Mquiocho Hello to my R1 brothers, i'm new to the forum. I was jus wondering if anybody has any opinions on the Black Widow exhaust? I love Black Widow products.. PM me any questions you have

I ride a high mount micron....has a deep mellow sound at low rpms but is a high squeeler in the high revs....you keep pegs but lose signals....some say it is too big of a can but I kinda like it

I like my Laser Hotcam Hi-Level slip-on. Sounds nice and deep and seems to pull stronger mid range. Had this R1 dyno'd at 152BHP at the crank. Stock except for can. :D

Akarapovic

I love my micron. I have D&D on my other bike but its wayyy too loud for my taste...But my friend was getting on it down my neighborhood and it kinda sounded tight..but still wayyy too loud.

R1mini what tire do you have on the back of your bike? Dave

Akarapovic

My vote for best slip on... (yes, it is a slip on...) From mototechno.com.

Mototechno Slip On R1 Exhaust:

Got a Yosh TRS carbon fiber and it sounds rather good to me.

Originally posted by Dave2001R1 R1mini what tire do you have on the back of your bike? Dave Pirelli Evo Corsa 190. :cool: I wouldn't ride anything else on this bike, except maybe the super corsas. :fact

hindle!:rock

Originally posted by mrtwist Mototechno Slip On R1 Exhaust: Damn went to the site and that exhaust is tight work. My only concern is that itty bitty stop light. I dont want any one running up my a$$ at a stop light:butt

Originally posted by mrtwist Mototechno Slip On R1 Exhaust: Where is you r tail light and do they make them for other bikes?

I would not get a slip-on. I have a Two Brothers, but I WISH I had just spent the extra 200 bones and got the full Arata or Akrapovic.

Full is the way to go I suppose...

Full Yosh gave me 12.6hp more at the rear wheel slip on 2hp.

Cool pipes ladies. :thumbup

Akra slip on plus R & G frame sliders:D

Hi! I'm relatively new to the R1 & new to this forum. This is an excellent thread though, as my stock silencer has got to go, and seeing the pictures of what your cans look like on your bikes is a great help. I really like the titanium akaprovic - although the micron high mount has caught me eye a bit. BYe! CB

Akra TI

SATO RACING for me...

I like my Micron. Sounds great, and it evened out the power band. I don't care if it doesn't add a bunch of ponies. The 1 is plenty fast, and I don't race.

im looking for more peformance in my low to mid range but just want to add a slip on not full I like the exup system. can anyone point me in the right direction and if possible have dyno graph showing differance from stock. thxs

Sorry guys i am also new and i do not hve the slightest idea how to even post anything!!! Any input on the GYT-R...I have a source that says Yamaha is getting them fork Ak!? Thanks... 2003 Black / Red R1

prnstar - I can't remember which one - but if you click on one of the dealers ad banners that are on this site - I did download a graph for the Akra Slip On. Basically in torque & bhp it was always the same or higher compared to the stock item. Since I posted at the top of this page - I have since purchased the Akra slip on TI for my bike. CB
