Hi all,
So after 6 weeks of glorious RSV ownership I think its time to look at making some changes to my new baby.
I really like bikes having twin exhausts, one on each side. It just looks ballanced and right!
So just wanted to ask the collective wisdom what i should be keeping my eyes open for!
I know there are some Aka pipes out therefe but understand these are modified gen 2 systems? Big mods?? I have also seen some Harris pipes that sold just before christmas on ebay (damn!!)
any others i should be looking for? Who else has done it and any advice? Costs? Anyone selling??
Cheers

Most big names make a twin system for the gen1 or should I say did make a system.
So budget options...falco headers ..for some these bolt straight up maybe wrap the headers where close to the bellypan,some have had to add a bulge or 2 to the bellypan...??. Gen2 system with 3 bolt flanges added,personally I'd leave the rear down pipe in place and mod the collector to mate up as again some people have issues with the rear pipe Then there are any number of purpose made twin systems..Leo Vince,akrapovic,renegade,Harris,arrows,sil moto ,tigcraft,etc etc.some are for 99-00 models others are for 01-03 ..different suspension linkages dictate the clearance. For any twin system if you want pillion pegs you need to mod the left hand peg or buy a set of pillion pegs with the hangers..very rare. Or no pillion then just hangers..gen 2 doesn't fit as different bolt spacing. Also gen 1 single seat subframe may not have bolt holes on the left side....eiter add rivnuts or change subframe to dual seat version. What ever you decide twin systems make a great noise and you'll have fun setting off car alarms as well as a nice 10bhp hike in the midrange and a bit at the top. The budget conscious stick with a single can and a moded collector to get nigh on the same results. Cost wise falco headers can be picked up for 30 quid dual systems go from 175 upwards you just need to be in the right place at the right time. |

no worries...there are also the renegade high levels that keep the standard collector..link pipe splits into 2 and you have can either side |

Whose is that? Lush man! Does this standard collector to -split have the same mid range advantages as a full twin system? I'm assuming not. |

No idea whose bike it is ..it's an old old pic from somewhere no one on here I'm sure Basically no I don't think it offers any power gains at all..but combine it with a modded header then yeah. |

There is a mille/Falco thing on ebay at the moment
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/APRILIA-RSV-MILLE-2001-/261426728668?pt=UK_Motorcycles&hash=item3cde3f4edc I bought a spare set of fairings of him and he was a great bloke. Sadly he is having no joy selling the bike so might be worth making him an offer on his pipes as they were lovely! |

I made my gen 1 tuono in to a twin system as I prefere twin pipes. I just bought the full gen 2 system and cut header flanges off and welded the gen 1 flanges on in there place and ive now got a tasty little twin system and very happy with it and will be even better when there cored out later this week ! :)

I dont know what year they were, I just bought a gen 2 full system but not sure what year it was off ! Id of thought 06 onwards. It was a bit of a faf about getting the rear header in place and tacked into place but not a bit job tbh. I welded as much as I could while the flanges were bolted to the head so they face stayed flush when put underheat. But make sure you have the mille rear hangers as they fit straight on and hang the cans in place and make sure there is a bit of space infront of the starter motor and that it doesnt foul your rear shockerbefore you weld pipes on to flanges. I also had to move the hanger bracket on the cans around 2" futher down the can and also had to move around slightly. If you do the conversion you will see what I mean |

please pm me if you're serious about selling the arrows as those could be just right. I also have large feet but don't think the pipes getting it the way of my heels will really be my limiting factor.

Quick question for those who put falco dual exhausts on mille and use their mille on track.
Are exhausts high enough not to touch the ground in the corners? |
