Anyone run their F2 exhaust under the seat like modern bikes?

I really like the idea of bringing my stock F2 exhaust out of dragging range by migrating it from the right side to tucked up under the seat. Has anyone done this on a street bike.. what about rear fender and plate relocation?

as far as rear plate goes , that can always be moved to left side of swingarm , and rear fender is good , you have 4 inches from the bottom of the seat to the tire in clearance . first off you would have to buy an exhaust small enough to tuck under the seat , second all the plastics under the seat attached to the tail light must get choped off , except for where the light gets bolted back on , this gives you the space you need to place an exhaust while still havin that new cbr look . as for exhaust , two brothers makes a line of stunt mufflers , from 15- 10 inches long , either one will work , third take your bike to a local muffler shop and have them make up some piping from the s pipe to the start of your new muffler( assuming you know the position of where the muffler will go ) just the fabbing and bending , no exhaust just yet . go back home with your new piping and mess with it for a while , make sure it looks the way you want and that it has clearance , once you know you got a good fit , take it back in to your muffler shop , and have them weld it on . fire it up and enjoy . p.s. line up the bottom of your seat with some heat guard , trust me .

How do you get past the centered rear suspensions on an F2? It looks like the only room I have is to go outside the swingarm, then come back under the seat.

the s pipe follows the same direction as the stock muffler would , the piping is gonna run is under and right to the side of your right rear set and thru that gap viewing the rear suspension , from there your pipe only needs an upright 90 deg. turn to your muffler , heres a pic , good luck http://w1.bikepics.com/pics/2006/04/...74992-full.jpg

Nice! Thats what I was looking for. My stock swingarm is in the way on that side. what swingarm are you running?

stock swingarm , only thing is piping would have to be ran a bit different, but not that bad . instead of a more under the bike route ( like in the picture ) WITH THE STOCK SWINGARM YOUR JUST GONNA SHIFT IT TO THE SIDE MORE OF AN SOUND MOUNT PIPING . YOULL GET IT .LET ME KNOW WHEN YOU DO
