Hi

I can't make my mind up :confused:

The bike looks like this (without the extra long number plate holder)

Carbon takes a longggg time to fade to the point it looks ming.

I would personally make my own stubby :)
 
I really like Tri-Oval exhausts. I've got one myself, although, I can't remember its length, but it's a cut down size.

Thanks for the suggestions.

I don't want something too loud as I use the bike every day.

Does. Not. Compute...

In all seriousness though, get one with a removable baffle. Then, if you don't want it too loud, you can keep the baffle in. But I'm sure eventually you'll ride without one, they sound SO much better lol.
 
Not to mention, and being serious, the louder the better for commuting, not only being seen, but being heard CAN save lives.

People laugh but this is true. I've lost count of the amount of times people have been about to cross in front of me then heard the roar coming and thought better of it :D
 
Does a loud can add anything to you insurance premium?

Totally depends on your insurer to be honest. But what you're looking it, it shouldn't add a great amount, if anything. You're only looking at a bolt on exhaust, not a completely new exhaust system, so it's more an aesthetic thing, as oppose to a performance thing.
Complete new sports exhaust systems, including down pipes and everything, can add a price to your premium as they're designed to increase output power of your engine.
