what do you mean your exhaust is leaking? is there a black substance running down the pipes.

The QD ex-box isnt made for the 796 based on the manufacturers catalog, its made for the 1100. Im not certain that its compatible with the 796 so I would check with the manufacturer before I debate that decision anymore. Ive learned that they will recommend anything on ebay. Again im not certain just a heads up. Definitely like how the sc project looks and would def be interested in hearing it on the 796 if anyone has a clip.

It is normal but dont let that stop you from buying a set of pipes anyway

i like the ex box..and not to many people have em..also project is nice as well..i would stay clear off any zard exhaust they are very poor quality...at least from my two experiences with them..unless they improved since 2008.

The undertail exhaust is one of the outstanding features on the hyper for me. I really like the termi slips with the other parts that make it a full system and the sounds is amazing while keeping that undertail look. On the other hand if I had the cash flow right now I'd own a set of the SC Projects 2 into 2. It's got the look no one really has and Ive heard they sound alot like an RC51 which is the one bike that haunts my dreams.

yes its normal and i only know that because like you i asked the same question
