i tink is rmz450 ah..

[gasgasx]

oh ya....should be....coz further down it's the RMZ 450 sm.

 

damn.....yoshimura seems to be going all out in motardising the dual sports and offroad models from Suzuki.

 

i've heard it's best to get those aftermarket cams from Yoshimura as they are the ones who did all sorts of R & D on the Suzuki bikes

[Guest rookie517]

The pic shown here is the street legal one. Got the catalogue from one of the bike shop's exhibition booth during the bike show @ suntec. Will go back and check which shop it is.

 

The Pro version (non legal):

Road legal one:

Won't it look sweeeet with 17" Excels?

[R.C.]

ah tiang > I think street legal exhaust are for looks only.

 

amazinboinz > Street legal full systems you'll have to enquire from Motoworld. It is probably the RS3 like the ones used on S4, CBR, RVF. But that's juz my guess.

[GC212]

foxracing do u know how much the street legal 1 cost or r there any in singapore really interested the pro version 1 looks better with the inverted fork

[hardrider]

RMZ450SM... Me likey, me likey

Too bad forxracing beat me to the only one available

 

Motoworld has the DRZ full system. $1800 if I recall right.

Unfortunately, at that point in time, it was not yet street legal.

I think street legal pipes are slip ons only. Full systems not allowed... For the DRZ at least. Not too sure if they have it sorted out yet.

[gasgasx]

doesn't slip-on jus changes the decibel level only with lil' improvement to the hp of the bike?the yoshi slip-on is capable of producing 96decibel of sound or so.

 

if full system is not allowed then fixing an aftermarket slip-on doesn't seems to worth every pence of your money.

 

but then....that's juz my point of view. no hostile intent though.

[R.C.]

hardrider > $1800 is for the road legal full system. You can get a new Yosh RS3 or OFFROAD for $500+. Dun think there's road legal slip on either. Shouldn't cost $1800 for a slip on either hehe.

 

gasgasx > Have to agree with you totally. Slip ons suck! However the ones that come for the DRZ are one piece with the mid pipe which is larger than the stock mid pipe. So there is a lil more gain than those sports bike bolt ons. Mine juz makes lotsa noise in rev... Idling its quieter than stock...

[gasgasx]

foxracing>>

ic ic....but then i think sound is not an issue coz i think u can insert some disc or something liddat into the exhaust to reduce the sound or something liddat. not too sure abt that though.

 

but if the slip-on comes with the mid pipe which is much bigger then the stock ones then there's room for consideration as that mid section really makes a lot of difference to the

value of the pipe itself.

[R.C.]

Think they call those the TEC inserts. But your Yosh model must have an endcap that can be removed by 3 allen bolts. Also I think the majority of the power loss is in the tiny DRZ header...

[amazinboinz]

Yo foxracing,

 

To confirm there is a Yoshi full system for DRZ @motorworld for $1800... way cool!!

Whats the model? And the performance gains... are they low-mid? or mid-high?

 

Hope to do something about the low range, but not changing sprocket sizes...

[R.C.]

God knows model/type/material/shape. Give them a call for details.
