Sorry to say, I'm not loving it.
I think if you go after-market one big advantage is to reduce weight (& clutter!) so personally think a 3-1 system works better to that end. I'm sure the BF's are lighter than stock but the twins still look bulky and undoubtedly still heavier than a single.
Although I have a high level full can myself (& Blueflame even!) with the 1050 styling I think the GP style stubby cans look really well matched to the other-wise minimalist rear end (once the tail is hacked off!)

So not for my taste, but it's yours that matters & you don't need anyone's endorsement to like what you like.

i understand what you saying. but i really dont like the stubby cans, i prefer the twin cans.
As you say each to their own.

I was gonna go down the route of the single stubby can but after seeing these pics of those BF cans i think i am gonna have a harder decision now, they look real good on there. Only problem is i did have a bad experience with BF when buying a can for my previous bike, hopefully they got their quality issues resolved, the titanium can i ordered for my RSV1000 looked like it had been put together by a chimp.

i had a bf on my daytona 650 before, didnt have an issue with quality, think it was a great can.

No quality issues with mine either - nice piece of hardware.

Ah well maybe i was just unlucky. Those cans do look pretty nice though did you get them at the Excel show.

i did, 25% off, only took a week to come through, and i didnt want the big evo badge on, so got the smaller stickers put on.

Down in (not so sunny at the moment) Cornwall. Was gonna go to the excel show but didn't make it unfortunately. A mate of mine from up in Surrey went though and said it was a good show.
