Hi folks, my first post here - Rich, I have to ask, how the hell do you get away with that no plate??! I've got a black/white 7x5 plate on my bike which I'm yet to get pulled for (which I'm surprised about), but yours is brilliant!

By the way, love the look with the exhaust & filler

Re: Fireblade 08 - Aftermarket Exhaust

Go online and look up racetaylormade.com. I have this exhaust and power commander on my '08 Fireblade. It sounds NICE! ...and I noticed a HUGE difference (night and day) with this exhaust/power commander, also, a BMC air filter, NGK plugs, and ignition module. Plus, it looks sexy!

...or go online and look up baysideperformance.com for a listing of ALL exhausts available for any bike. The Yosh exhaust looks sexy for the '08 Fireblade as well.

Anyone know where the body infill panel comes from in the You Tube vid? I like the GP-Pro, and would buy it if i can get a panel to cover the pipe.

Any ideas????

Welcome mate i do get pulled for the plate and told to change it, sometimes they give us a £30 fine (its worth that for the looks)

Re: Fireblade 08 - Aftermarket Exhaust

I quite like to Yoshi infill, but unless you have the means to mess around fabricating bits to attach it, its a pain. I wondered if anyone knew where the infill came from on the You Tube vid because it fit well with the GP pipe.

not sure what panel that is. Almost looks like the one that comes with the racefit mega exhaust.

here are some instructions for fitting the yosh panel if you want to try it

Re: Fireblade 08 - Aftermarket Exhaust

Blue Flame is pretty good i had an exhaust off them for my k7 gsxr 600 it was very good not too loud but performed and sounded excellent. As for the 08 blade from what i have heard its not really worth changing the exhaust.

Re: Fireblade 08 - Aftermarket Exhaust

I just picked up my 08 and I gotta say I'm staying with the stock exhaust. It actually sounds pretty good and will save me some money.

I'm going to paint it black so it blends in better then the silver.

I just finished installing a Yoshimura R77 full system with carbon fiber can on my 08. Try it, you'll like it.

Re: Fireblade 08 - Aftermarket Exhaust

I wonder what the fitting kit is like. Does it rely on a Yoshi pipe or a full on fabrication, as per the Akra pipe and Yoshi pannel bodge?????

Re: Fireblade 08 - Aftermarket Exhaust

it looks like a standard yosh panel that is wrapped in cf, so fit would be the same with a yosh pipe and would require modding with any other

I would now have to say ... YES! Attached pic is of a Striker (the brand name of Arata in Japan). It is a bit different than the long system Arata that can be seen at the Arata USA website.

Here are a couple of links to additional pics:
