Question on Yoshimura Exhaust
Why is it that its couple hundred cheaper then the Micron's, and also how do you rate them in sound. And also is there a sound different in between the Stainless, Titanium, Carbon Yoshimura's cause they all cost different amounts, or is it just weight and cosmetic, cuase I just want the Cheap Stainless (think it looks the best anyways).

Same reason a Hindle costs less than a Micron...who the hell knows?

There's no functional reason to buy the other cans if you're not worried about weight or looks. It sounds like your mind is made up, buy the SS.

So you dont think the sound difference is really there to justify paying for the Micron over the Yosh?

No.

I had a Micron and liked it, but if you just are looking for some sound and looks, I think you'll be happy with the Yosh.

If you want the max HP gains, you need to probably buck up for a Arata, a Hindle (though you might get one cheaper than the Yosh, I do think it is a bit lower quality), or Micron. In my order of preference.

BTW, I had the Micron on my bike. I will say, it wouldn't disappoint you in any way.

EDIT: Sorry man, I just noticed this is for the VTR. I really don't know about them.

Go with the Erion Racing slip-ons. By far the best sounding pipes for a Super Hawk. They look tits in black too.
