Agree on all points, that said, I never thought I would see the Yoshimura badge on a Harley... very interesting times ahead.

Great exhaust... I have a Yoshi RS-3 full system on my DRZ400-SM.

I Like them, the carbon fiber works well with the modern looking Bob. The only thing I would do different is tone down the Yosh badging on the mufflers. Make the badges more subdued and it would be a great set up.

I'd wait until some real full exhaust systems are introduced by various high performance entities.

Was just checking out some of the other videos in the series... starting from hand making the brackets and attaching them to the cans. Very cool stuff! (wish I understood Japanese)

Here is another vid of the guy making the brackets and fitting the cans. At around the 16:35 mark he fires up the bike again and gives it a few small twists at 18:30. I think it sounds pretty good... nice low rumble.

Indeed... I am still in the honeymoon stage of my bike, and find it cool to see what others are doing while learning something along the way.

Really looking forward to seeing what full exhaust systems shake out in the next year or two.

Cheers!

Dread. I'm sure there are full exhausts systems in the testing stage right now as I type. And I'm sure they'll be well received upon introduction. Especially on the two 2018 HD fat bikes.

Hey Art,

I totally agree, and I am looking forward to it.

Have seen people posting about loaning their Fat bikes to exhaust shops to be used as a template for full system fabrication.

I think that the sport-esque exhaust system is a perfect fit for Fat Bob. The regular big radius or short shots just look out of place.
I wish Acropovik or Yoshiumar would make a proper 2 in 1 system for Fat Bob.
Perfect example is a Yoshimuar system adopted for Arch KRGT-1.

I know Reinhart are in the process of making one (due for release in Summer) but not aware of anyone else having one in production. (apart from TBR)

Is anyone aware of any being made?
