I've got to that age where the first thing I do when I buy a 2nd hand bike is put a stock exhaust back on it! My son is constantly at me about the how the exhaust on my r1 looks like a lamp post but I like the standard noise and the funny thing was the after market one that was on it was heavier. The other thing is I think (maybe misguided) is that you can go faster with a stock exhaust without attracting any attention, other people think you're going too fast when they hear a loud pipe even if you're not going full pelt. Good 'how to' video though.

@@itsmemarkt Hi Mark, firstly congratulations on taking the plunge!... let's sort out those two small issues... your brake lever is close to the exhaust, but it shouldn't foul it, so it may need some adjustment to just shift it a little inwards so it clears... I covered everything in my video, but if it's possible there may be an anomaly with the exhaust, you could contact George at TEC who may have come across that problem and know how to advise you........ but am sure it's just a case of loosening off the headers and getting everything wriggles in to place, remember like I said in the video, it's important to get that link pipe under the engine installed all the way in as far as it can go, otherwise that could be why your right hand pipe is sticking out a little............ as far as the springs go, I had a couple like that, and all you need to do is 'GENTLY' bend the loops that are welded to the pipe away from each other a little to widen the gap... I moved mine maybe 5mm each and the spring was taught.... George covers this in his video as well! Hope that helps, let us know how you get on!

Sure thing buddy, the baffle sadly is a little over restrictive and denies you the full development of the exhaust, but wide open does bellow a little at the same time, so the best option is actually to cut the baffle in half, as the guys at TEC have suggested, this cuts down on the hollow echo of the open pipe and allows, at the same time, a nice flow to breathe and the pipe work's then as designed.

Nope, it's fine, because the system was designed around the ECU, not the other way round... effectively developed within the parameters of the ECU's range and if it ran lean, you'd see if straight away as the top corner of the header pipes would turn blue & purple, and as you saw, they simply went slightly yellow straw colour so that's nice and cool. Also, the removal of the cat cools down the entire system and prevents the significant heat soak from having a red hot cat right underneath your sump.

Hi mate, great to hear from you, and yes indeed, it's so important to carefully preserve factory parts, they're all now wrapped in cloth and poly peanuts and tucked away in the loft for posterity, they're practically brand new, so some day, they'll have value to someone! With the baffle, I'm going half and half, running a Thruxton baffle, which is like the I showed, except cut down to 1" long and a little bigger bore, you can buy them from TEC and they recommend them too, as like you say, it gives that optimum back pressure, but still nice and open and comfortably louder, not bellowing and hollow!

sounds alot better....im not convinced about exhaust flow through that T junction when there looks to be space for something of a Y junction.

I didn't design it, but speaking to the guy who did, the T-piece provides back pressure and increases low down torque, the fast the flow, the more revs you need, and there was extensive dyno development to create this exhaust, and having ridden it, it seriously works, more low down grunt than normal and a really pleasing torque surge from as a low as 2k revs!
