New Yoshimura R77 exhaust
« on: September 13, 2013, 09:10:49 »
I had a fun day of doing some mods! Put on my Yoshimura R77 exhaust. This was hands down the EASIEST exhaust change I have ever done on a bike. Sounds great!

The Yoshi setup replaces everything except the short header attaching to the rear cylinder. A few inches from the exhaust outlet there is a pipe clamp. You can access the bolt from the left side of the bike in front of the shock. You loosen that clamp and the rear pipe from that point down comes off. Then you put the new midpipe back up onto that little header piece and clamp it. The entire front header pipe is replaced with the Yoshi unit. Fit was great, installation went smooth, the whole thing took about 45 minutes taking my time.

Typical Yoshimura, it's what's makes them better than the rest. Everything fits properly and is made to very high standards. Those pipes are probably tuned for the V-Strom engine as well and if you looked at a dyno chart of your bike you would notice how good the curve looks over the whole rev range. They also always sound as lovely as they look, proper good engineering that's worth every last penny. I'm a big Yoshimura fan :thumb:

I agree. This is the 4th bike I have put Yoshimura on. I loved every one of them. The weight loss and sound difference alone was worth it to me. Of particular interest to me was how much effort they put in to maximizing the length of the rear cylinder midpipe as well as splitting the front inorder to balance out the backpressure/impulse on both cylinders. Anyone thinking of getting one should not be reserved. Buy with confidence.

I know. But I use the exhaust so much more than a center stand!! :auto-dirtbike:
