I always loved the twin arrows but they sounded terrible in every video I saw. I was very happy with the Wings I put on my 790 but I know it’s too stubby for you.
I remember Tekmo made titanium down pipes for the 701 and the quality wasn’t 100%, the fit seemed very hit and miss.
I’m the same as you regards exhausts, it has to look right and sound right, for my 701 I bought a Wings, Leo Vince, Akra and Remus till I was happy😀
I’m having same dilemma at the mo with the Hyper :mrgreen:

Ye, not very subtle. You could quieten it a bit.... The single big pipe looks nice though. 👍

Looks like advertising camouflage! :sick: You're right about that can though. If that bike was in plain black and all those decals removed it'd look lovely!

Well,

I've sat here and sat here and even discussed it in depth with a few other lunatics we all know and I said

"When I had a 790 I tested a 690 and went straight home and bought the 690"

So I've pulled the plug on the 790 purchase and the 690 stays.
