I like the 1200S but then I don't .....

Dunno about those Laser cans. Like Chris & Seadog said, Laser should bother to prouduce a proper fruity baboon-arse can - although production costs would probably be too expensive just for the S. Those twin pipes are sooo last season! Worse than that, they look like they're generic cans shoe-horned in without consideration for fitting the the bike's recesses.

Yep, got to agree with you there Julian, you've hit the nail right on the head. They may very well have designed them just for the 12S, BUT, they LOOK like they've just shoe-horned in two cans from stock. Great pics by the way Roloo and the bike in general looks nice ( though I always did like Colgate as a kid ! ) but it just looks really unfinished at the back with them on, though the welding on the pipes looks pretty good !

Have to smile went along way down the road to fitting a factory 999 can of one of Haga's 04 Ducatis during the winter,problem being it mean't haveing to re-jig whole system and i couldn't be arsed,but when i had it all lined up,did it look trick,the very least you would exspect is a single can.!!.

Talking about cans,single ones at that.Do you reckon a arrow single oval can for a RSVR mille would be suitable for a S engine?

Must admit - those look pants. And the pics of the bike make the 800S look better every day. :?

Give us a big bore, twin exit (or just one large one) in one box. :)

Doesn't Assen look great now? :cry: :cry:

I like the way they have replaced the gravel traps with rubble traps. Is this some sort of cost saving measure?

Oh.....:( well I was hoping they'd so something a little different to the old S. But they do look like ones they had on the factory floor that have been cut and shut to fit so maybe... Otherwise I'll be looking at a new blade/zx636 single oval can conversion. Tho on the german site they talk about an akrapovic can sold thru BMW dealers a la KTM deal. We'll see

I know that you have to be careful running a twin through a can meant for a in line four.Also be careful running twins through non specialised carbon cans as they tend to make the resin break down with the power pulse.
