Title: S2r/S4r undertail -- interested? Post by: ducatiz on January 10, 2011, 09:18:44 AM I am working on having a run of these made. ARCfab made this one and I have loved the look for a long time. It would match to the stock udder or any header with the same 2 pipe locations.
Yes/No, what would you pay? It would be a Y piece, a curve pipe and a small muffler as pictured. The muffler will look different, probably will use something off the shelf for it, but the same idea will apply (i.e. oval, flat, etc) (http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l309/ducatiz/DMF/7b1b45c0.jpg) Title: Re: S2r/S4r undertail -- interested? Post by: TAftonomos on January 10, 2011, 09:38:32 AM Single can under tail exhaust looks terrible IMHO. Needs twin cans, or something integrated into the tail/tucked under where the light would be. Otherwise, to me, it looks like something someone had made at a muffler shop.

Oh and for the love of God, stick some end caps in that tail chop!!! [cheeky] that was the 696 from the Indy Grand prix 2 years ago i think. the undertail flat exhaust took the place of the light. really thought this would be the style they would go for the S4R replacement not the Streetfighter like they did. The guy that built this one supposedly started offering them for sale. Title: Re: S2r/S4r undertail -- interested? Post by: Monster Dave on January 10, 2011, 12:09:26 PM I know that there were pics of the exhaust in another thread on here.
Title: Re: S2r/S4r undertail -- interested? Post by: Slow Guy on January 10, 2011, 12:18:49 PM While i can appreciate the skill involved with making this exhaust I have to agree that twin exhaust would be better.
Just my opinion that is all nothing follows Title: Re: S2r/S4r undertail -- interested? Post by: duccarlos on January 10, 2011, 03:14:42 PM Anyone in Florida would have issues, since there was a law passed about the placement of the plate.
Title: Re: S2r/S4r undertail -- interested? Post by: Jarvicious on January 10, 2011, 03:57:59 PM I've been thinking about doing an LED taillight for a while now, but the only thing that was stopping me was the glaring gap between the frame and the seat. I think this would do nicely :)
Do you have any side shots? What kind of midpipe compatibility are we talking about, or is it a full system? As far as the two vs. one undertail goes, I think it depends on the bike. While they're not pointy like a lot of the Japanese, I've always thought Monsters have a pretty thin rear end. Tucking two big ass cans up there 1098 style would just jumble things up, but I agree the tip definitely needs to be located where the taillight presently is.

Post by: lazylightnin717 on January 10, 2011, 05:01:51 PM I have to disagree with others. I really like the look of the single can [thumbsup] I would love to have something like this for my bike.

(http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4130/5082404830_8a7fe070bf_z.jpg) ok... it started its life as a 696. a 999 style tail light and tag system would just fine with this exhaust. i think the real problem would be the seat and cover. but i looks like he cut the seat pan as well. Title: Re: S2r/S4r undertail -- interested? Post by: 671M900 on January 10, 2011, 09:34:17 PM How about a Desmo style GP exhaust? One under the tail, one in front of the rear wheel?
Title: Re: S2r/S4r undertail -- interested? Post by: sbrguy on January 10, 2011, 10:38:11 PM a gp style exhaust that is done well would look pretty sick, sort of a combo of boomtubes and underseat would be good if someone could do it right.

Post by: herm on January 11, 2011, 05:04:07 AM twin can like a 916, right? i like the single can, but i think you might be right. i like the idea of twin rounds, set slightly apart. Title: Re: S2r/S4r undertail -- interested? Post by: ducpainter on January 11, 2011, 05:16:28 AM Just for the record the reason that has a single flat can is for tire clearance.
That's all that will fit under the tail of a Monster without frame mods. I used to have a vid of the bike somewhere. Can't find it. Title: Re: S2r/S4r undertail -- interested? Post by: DucHead on January 11, 2011, 06:48:42 AM Wouldn't that muffler melt the plastic undertail?

Maybe Mark can look into this... IIRC that was removed I presume you would need to relocate a lot of wires as well. Title: Re: S2r/S4r undertail -- interested? Post by: DucHead on January 11, 2011, 07:59:46 AM IIRC that was removed I guess it could easily be replaced with an insulated two-piece aluminum undertail. Title: Re: S2r/S4r undertail -- interested?

Doug took them with his phone on the street in front of BCM.The sound is limited by the can. Title: Re: S2r/S4r undertail -- interested? Post by: ducatiz on January 11, 2011, 08:58:37 AM Doug took them with his phone on the street in front of BCM. The sound is limited by the can. I just wish I had more time to fiddle with it myself. I think something wider would give a better sound. Keep the same height. But then the price goes up.. alas... Title: Re: S2r/S4r undertail -- interested? Post by: TJR178 on January 15, 2011, 08:29:30 AM I'd like to have a twin exhaust set-up for my Arrow's. I love the Arrow sound, but I kinda miss my twin set-up like my Sparks were. If you can come up with something that will except multiple cans (like Arrows), I'm in.
