    Fuel exhausts for the 700

    Fuel exhausts now do a can for the 700. Anyone had one fitted? If so, what is your experience? Very tempted........

    Fuel exhausts borrowed a bike from a member on here as a pattern for the 700. So, yes I would think that it fits properly.

    It's not a case of whether we can fix it or not - it's more a case of how fixed would you like it?

    It was my bike they fitted up. I've had no problems at all, think I've done about 1000 miles with it on. Sounds fantastic with baffles out but generally I leave them in. I haven't noticed any difference with fuel consumption and I have fitted the Givi pannier rack with no mods or messing about. The original exhaust was about a third heavier than the Fuel can. I think there was a piccy on the Fuel site of my bike with the can fitted. Might go and get a pic for you, although i've been out on it all week and could do with a wash.

    I think there has been some improvement in performance but it isn't massive. Enjoying the noise it makes now!

    Hmm... I wonder if it's also compatible with the genuine Honda pannier rack?

    Hi, Paul N,
    Was your fuel exhaust an oval one ?
    Im only asking because I would like to fit one to my 700 alp
    How much room is there between the givi pannier rack and the can,
    My stock exhaust is nearly toutching the rack,
    Thanks,
    Ian.
