Exhaust quandary

Well here we go would like your opinions and advice

I have the LV cat eliminator and next move will be the end can but do I go for the termi 2-1-2 with the DP ECU that comes with the end can or go for the Zard penta and have to get a DP ECU either on its own or with the DP Cams ??

the 2-1 is not an option just not a fan

The 2-1-2 is not really a great can - not a true 2 out can because of the crossover pipe, and not a real carbon can ... just a stupid slip on carbon cover. I have it and think it sucks ass ... can't wait to get rid of it, in fact.

I'd say pop for a full aftermarket exhaust of your choosing, buy the DP EVO ECU, sell the LV cat eliminator to offset the cost and ... BOOOM! ... more performance and awesome sound without all the BS.

Da Bull, are the covers easily removable to expose some nice metal or is it huccery underneath?

I hear ya' bro I'm considering all my options as well and not a big fan of the "dirtbike looking" single can. Wish Akrapovic would hurrry up and build one for the hyper, I had a set on a monster I once owned and loved 'em.

I emailed Akrapovic the other day, they said they are not making a system for the Hypermotard.
Anyway, I finally found something that looks good and appears to be a proper 2-1-2 like the LV. Made by Spark.
Should arrive soon so I'll post pics and let you know how it sounds etc.

Well that's crap! I was hoping Akrapovic would put a pipe out for the HYM....I am not in the market yet but I really like the Arrow and the QD, I never really liked the single sided can but the QD looks good on the HYM. The Zard Penta is up there to and so would the LeoVince but I can get over the way the pipe routes from the vertical cylinder. Performance wise I haven't taken the time to compare yet.

Those look pretty good. Is there an importer in the USA for those?

I'll put my .02 in for the Zard Pentas. They fit the look and contour of the rear end perfectly on the HM. They sound great, too!
