New bike day... Orange, of course, well... it had to be...

Oh dont get me wrong, I love the look of a single can on these bikes.

1You single handedly keep DPD couriers in business!

You should have a 48hr freeze on any purchases so you can change you mind 5 times as to whether its the right thing or not!

You are right about those twins not looking as good if you're not going single east, no rear pegs, tail tidy etc..

DHL at the moment lol.

Tail tidy I'm not keen on with the 790, because it's a long sleek thing I don't mind the standard..

At the moment I'd rather throw the spare change at a pair of front brake pads as the stock ones are a bit crap.

In other news, dealer is doing skeleton staff next weekend and hoping to get at least all the paperwork done, maybe even a bike by the end of next week.

The right one is lower than the left one! Deffo better off with a single can if that's the fitment.

Happy new bike day,even if it has wonky tits.

That photo of single locks great. Rule of thumb, imo, Hi level full size....Low level stubby.

Lol mine ain't here yet, that's random bike.

Mine won't be wonky. Well, unless you class 1 sided as wonky

You've done it now Skub. He thinks its wonky and one sided and is probably trying to chop it in for a 690 with no dash warning issues. The Holy Grail of KTM...

Well i took them out the box, visualised them on the bikes, looked at the pics, look again, looked once more, then went back inside, then went back out to the box and looked at them again...

Then sent them back via courier to be swapped for the single can.

It may be only mine and a few peoples choice, but it's what i'm going with.

The single can looks good.

To be fair, anything is an improvement over the OE monstrosity

Well yes, clearly that was the main goal.

I wanted the Akra but they're £700 new and £500 used. The Leo is £300 new which is clearly a lot less and looks great. I was all set for the single till Couch was like "yeah get the dual get it get it"

I'm not so keen on any tbh, I haven't seen a decent aftermarket exhaust system that I'd drool over for the 790/890.
Aftermarket exhausts should make you weep with their beauty but I just don't see it here.

On that basis I'd keep it stock, I wouldn't spend money just to make it a bit better.

For me, anything is a chunk better looking than the stock... Well, not anything actually, but most. Certainly the Leo Vince single can anyway which for me is about the best looking one i've seen, with the Akra pretty high in the running too but arguably a little bulky.

Mmmmmm carbon fiber engine protection



There's some small 'case saver' CNC'd type stuff about, but must admit, i'd prefer something like these or the GB Racing type if GB Racing made them that is


Sadly the country code makes it 0086 from their phone number, which is China.... which currently brings out my frown face

Must admit from a straight on side view the twin cans don’t look as good, the uneven heights would annoy me too.
Single can had a removable baffle too, doesn’t look like the twins do.

I liked the little Titanium Arrow I had on mine.

Don't like carbon...looks too Jazz.

What about a decal kit. ?? If they do one. Proper different.

Looks wise I liked yours, noise wise I wasn't quite as convinced, I think longer cans bring a deeper rumble, like the Akra I had. But that had a non removable baffle. So I think the Leo will be deeper than your Arrow.

As we've established, I'm quite fussy with exhaust stuff, there's right and wrong, nothing in between

I hear ya. But they're not exactly discreet
