    Best sounding (and working) exhaust for a 600TA

    What exhausts have you guys got and what is the best sounding for a TA600? I would love to get the Buell type sound from the TA without attracting too much attention, but enough for people to hear you in commuting traffic.

    I did have an old XT250 with a VFR750 race can on the back of it, it did have meaty chopping sound!

    mines fitted with a Lazer pro and sounds nice but it is fully compliant

    I have a carbon can ready for the DR600.. wont fit the TA without ruining it but I loose fitted it the other day out of curiosity.. it sounded awesome.. could be a dremel moment in the near future

    quite happy with the Lazer though as it cured the flat spot and its a lot neater
    I spotted a 650 coming up the road I I was walking from the car.. very muted sound

    I would look at a carbon can .. neat light .. don't get that hot, so fine with luggage and you can get them with removable baffles I think...

    lazer pro dura, but the illegal one. the clamp covers the "not for road use" and its straight thru with only a spark arrester on the end.

    and its fine on part throttle. and its good quality stainless, light and slim.

    besides. motorbikes were meant to be loud

    And it absolutely looks the business on a transalp... I've been sorely tempted to get a transalp just to put a produro on it, I think it's one of the best bike-pipe combos out there. Eventually decided against it and bought the GS, which probably makes a better pair with the dommie (with its own produro) anyway...

    I have that can on my @ and its even louder than that! Thought it was too loud at first but its just too nice to get rid of it. I'm going to get a baffle though for when i'm on big trips.

    Yes, but this one's stationary.

    It is. On both counts.

    Here's an .avi of a friend of mine with the illegal one on his XT... At idle it's kinda loudish but still a big friendly thump... But opening it up, whoah.
