Just finished fitting this can. Second hand off ebay.  Does anyone recognise the make please.
Certain bits remind me of a scorpion can.

I would say that was a beowulf or m.t.c https://www.mtcexhausts.com/Home_Page.php
m.t.c exhausts used to make the sleeves for beowulf, not sure if they still do! I had a pair of m.t.c cans on my zzr1400 if you were to remove the stickers you would not no the difference.

Same as mine and mine is black. However since fitting mine, it now pops and farts on the overrun. Does anyone els have the same issue, as I don't like it. Also I found a massive flat spot under heavy acceleration in second at around 6,000 rpm. Bike was serviced by a Kawaski dealer 3,000 miles ago, before I fitted the zorst. Is this normal and am I just a wimp?

I ...I dunno about the Beowulf popping and farting, but I know I do  :mfr_lol:

My two Brothers sounds sweet with no strange or unwanted noises on the overrun

Mine tends to do that too, but I don't mind because it is readily compensated by the growl it makes when I open up the bike.  :punk:

Chris do you have the extended warranty on the GTR? I had my entire exhaust sytem including end caps changed only a couple of weeks ago under warranty for the exact same problem.
