    Hey Rasputin! Here's your Yoshi

    Finally I was able to get a little video taken and uploaded of the my Yoshimura equipped 11. I got the pipe last year from Rasputin, and it has so far been one of the better purchases I have made for this bike. Hope you all enjoy it!

        Sounds great! Makes me wish I still had it, but just not my style. Really fits with the whole look of your bike too. You should send the video to Brian (Lamric) and he can maybe put it up on his exhaust site. I am sure he would like to see that.

                  Thanks guys! I am really happy with this exhaust, both with looks and performance.

                  Cornering clearance was actually improved with this pipe over the Mac 4-1 I had before. All of the low part it under the center of the bike, and never comes any closer to the ground than it is when upright. It is a little tough with speed bumps and that kind of thing, though. Definitely a streetbike. Also, it is a little shorter in length, which helped in cornering as well.

                  It is my garage, which i hope to finish soon. I am not really much on bare insulation, but it is warm and dry at least!

                  Looking into maybe some upgrades to suspension on this thing now. But we have snow here for awhile yet, so there is not rush!

                    Good video T99Ford

                    Is it OK if I use that video to show what a good Yoshi sounds like in the list of XS1100 aftermarket exhausts ?

                      Lamric,

                      Do it up. I tried to get on the UK site to tell you, but my account status needs a little work and I could not get on. Anyway, put it up if you feel it is worthy!

                        Thanks T99Ford, let me know if your XS1100UK account needs resetting. It's no problem.
