It doesn't sound that much louder in neutral, but it sounds really really good under load.

Perfect! I wanted something that wouldn't wake the kids or piss off the neighbors, but would sound mean when I wring it's neck! I already have my dyno time scheduled!

I was just trying to capture sound, wasnt worried about video.
I'll get a walk around video soon.
Here's some pic of mounting, at the front of the exhaust body the gap is about 1.5 inches, then tapers to an inch at the rear.
If I wouldn't have modified the mounting bracket with a new hole, it would have been more like 2 inches and grew to about 2.5.

My 2006 919 with Two Bros CF exhaust. I love the sound of it. The only thing I don't understand is why the logos did not sit in a visible location when installed. Even adjusting the position of the cans didn't make any difference.

I can't even see the logo! Something seems strange, every 2 Bros. system I've seen has the logo right on the side of the can. How far would you have to rotate the can to put the logo in the correct position?

Are the cans on the wrong side of the bike?
If you switch them left to right will it make a difference?

If you look in the picture you can just barely see the 2Bros logo on top of the exhaust. I checked to see if I had them mounted on the wrong sides, but it made no difference. I'm not sure whats wrong with them (or me)

Very nice, very RC-V in appearance.

Contrary to the fact I have no rear brake on my track bikes, yes I utilize the rear brake on the VTR a lot whether it be holding it still on stoplights at hilly intersections or sliding it sideways into a parking spot at bike night
