Man I want to like this bike but after owning I4 supersports for decades I just can't get past the lack of a top end rush. Brutal acceleration is part of the fun of riding. I wish the GSX8R had a GSXR750 engine. I'd buy one then. Everyone is going with these parallel twins now. It does have an impressive torque curve, it's only slightly below an SV1000 and my FZ1.

Thats fair. Its not that kind of motor. Some like it some dont. I am lucky to have turned a passion into my profession so i have several different types of motorcycles. This bike now zips up to the top end but If you want a big top end rush this isnt the bike for you. My h2sx is that bike for me.

Wow! Great job! That thing is definitely the underdog in the class. But you'll definitely leave the MT for dead now, and catch that duke 790, and aprilia 660 tuono! (If they can keep them from breaking!lmao)

Yes it is. Its very noticeable now that im testing the akrapovic how much more quiet the akra is. Honestly though , i never grew tired of it when doing my road tuning. I liked it. Im 52 and not into noise makers. It sounded crisp clean and sharp. My tune has something to do with that but its a good sounding exhaust.

Yoshimura system looks/sounds interesting, might be similar to the Arrow - are we planning to test? Would love to see what you think of that one!

Great videos. I'm considering the arrow for my gsx8s. Unfortunately I'm in the UK and I can't seem to find anyone who has spent any time tuning these bikes yet. How did you find it ran without a tune, do you think I would have any issues with it running lean or causing any problems while I wait for the UK to catch up with their tuning?

If you leave the intake all stock it would be ok
@Snotroggel4537 ай бұрын
There is no problem in running lean or rich. My Z900 has a full system too for 3 years without any tune or mod and its running absolutely fine enough power everywhere and no problems.

Hey man, I’m looking into the gsx8r as my first bike and I really like the arrow exhuast and I just have a question about the db killer. If I purchase from you in the future are you able to remove the db killer? I don’t have the right tools at the moment to do it myself and don’t want to scratch the carbon fiber. 😅

@Ngbaka15 ай бұрын
Awesome information. I'm looking into this exhaust but am in New Zealand so getting a tune is a lot more difficult. If I do no other mods, will this run fine? I will most likely be running the DB killer and the catalytic converter, unless you would recommend against that? Thanks!

Arrow. I changed my pricing a bit. I lowered my price on the arrow system by itself but the flash is no longer free In the end it’s the same price if you get both

If i don't buy the exhaust from you, can i still send ECU for flash? (for a fee obviously) Found an Italian place that will save me 400 bucks on price and cost 75 for shipping.. seems like a good deal.
