06 hotbodies untertail exhaust
does anyone here have one of these kits? how do u feel about it. heard it gets hot but not bad if u header wrap. excessively loud? worth 700 plus bucks? i think its by far the best looking option to clean up blinkers and pipes.

Yea thay have have had problems with them melting in the past. Also not to much to the pipe just a "y" piece of metal. Don't know if I would pay $700 for it. Rather have a beets racing exhaust>>>>>$2000

Hey Aveisone - I have one on my 05'... I've heard a lot of trash talk on the pipe but everyone that sees the kit or hears it on my bike loves it. I have some sound clips of it parked and also some going down the highway. I will try and post them over the weekend. What sold me was the look and I gambled on the sound (not hearing one before I bought it). The only thing is its loud because like mikedrinfla said in his reply... there isn't much to it. But fu** it too loud to old LOL! As for the melting problem... I think thats fixed with their improvements and mine as well. I insulated the whole undertail with high performance heat wrap. I'll post some pics of that too.

RE: 06 hotbodies untertail exhaust
love these exhausts, look great on some bikes (04-05 gsx-r600)but i dunno, unless the bike was a side can, then i don't like them, i love the look of a nice pipe coming out the rear, makes it look more functional and not so cartoon like, on a side can one, they route the exhaust behind the peg so u can see its going somewhere, on a 600rr or 1000rr, r1, zx, etc. they just mind **** me, i love seeing the exhaust, its a key functional aspect, and if your going for clean then think simplicity as in making the bike look purely functional, not hiding the exhaust, i honestly don't think it's worth the money though when if i had a welder and some pipe i could fabricate the exhaust and vacuum form the rear fender myself for less then 100 bucks with blinkers and lisence plate frame
