Just fitted hexacone & hugger bought yesterday from 2kwacks. Thanks Dave. Both fitted easily. Now time to go for a little spin. Cheers

I'm with you Steve, I think people who put aftermarket cans on their bikes, are people that just have to much money. Kawasaki must have spent millions on developing that can, so that the bike would perform well, sound exellent and look good :undecided:, so I dont see much sense in spending 400 sqid on putting something equally dubious to look at :undecided:, on the bike, just to make more noise :smiley:.

bollocks..! that's just what my old dad said :mfr_lol:
Yes my boy, And dads are always right :banana: :whistling:
I changed mine not for the noise but for looks.. The stock can looks more like a canoe and dads are not always right.. My dad is an :asshole: and knows :censored: all.. :mfr_lol:
The good thing about the GTR is you don't need to spend ££££'s on aftermarket stuff as the bikes near enough perfect as is. The Remus, low seat (for shorties), Screen upgrade are the usual and that's about it.
Nothing more needed for mine so why is it I'm still poor and can't afford my Rukka jacket ........
Oh yes I remember, this year I got the GTR on condition we got a new kitchen next! Doh!

Never been accused of having too much money before. All I know is that I earn it so I spend it how I choose. I put the can on to please me and no-one else. If you can't share my pleasure, please don't try to ruin it by accusing me of having too much money.

well said..! :laugh: may as well have what you want while you can, because once you reach pension aged :whistling: the "will" to even want what you wish you still had the "will" for has now fizzled away :grin: the trouble with the "old boys" :whistling: :wink:.. is they think they can take their money with them :mfr_lol:

Nice... how very very... itchy to get my hands on them... :punk:
Well I spent £160 on my Two Brothers Titanium 4 years ago and have never regretted it.
The OEM bazooka is overweight, too quiet (I want to ride a motorcycle, not a sewing machine), and finally it is :censored: :censored: UGLY!
The 2010- version is no better for all that it is a bit smaller.
And whatever make you think Kawasaki spent that much money on designing a silencer?
What they did was told their silencer supplier what they wanted and the supplier knocked together something that was good enough, complied with every noise law in the known universe, and fitted in with the current fashion for angular silencers.
I was filtering for over 10 miles every day and the difference that the 2Bros can made was remarkable.
Most car drivers rarely look in their mirrors once they are in slow traffic so they will NEVER see you coming.
Now if they hear a noise, their reflex is to look.
The only negative on that is that they also tend to steer where they look (classic target fixation) so the gap ahead of you shrinks before it opens up.
I rarely filter these days but I still like the sound and look of it.
