Maybe I'm forgetting what type of bike Crazy has? Or are you just talking about for yourself? :idk:

For my bike it's a world of diff.

He has a SV650S... exact same bike I started out on (and comonboys is currently riding)

From everything I've seen a slip on will give you ~1-2 hp. A full system will give you ~5 when tuned with a PC.
Slip on does not need a PC
Not worth the extra $ IMO

Makes a big diff with the I4's. Not as much with the V-twins from what I've seen.

In that case... I need CF headers, CF case covers, CF frame...
Damn this 1125 gets hot in stop and go riding. :panic:

I am going to be the voice of dissent,

I like the stainless with the blue merely for cosmetic reasons...

but CF is always a great way to go and is worth it for the reasons mentioned already...

yeah to clarify I have an 05 SV650s.
full system would be about 530 SS and 640 CF... which is doable but I don't see the point really. I'm doing this mainly for the sound, the stock exhaust sounds lame. the extra couple horsepower isnt a big deal for me.
anyways I decided to put it off till mid august, since its not gonna get in by next thursday at this point anyways. so i have some time to decide.

cutty do u have any pics of your CF pipe on the bike?
