Yoshimura Gp Evo 11

They are as rare as Rocking Horse shit here-has anyone had direct experience of them ? I looked on the site but cant seem to work out if they have removable baffels-Also are they loud? You cant get a realistic idea from the various vids on youtube. Are they easy to fit-i seem to think they use the oe fitments

I saw them a long time back and they do look very business like.

As I remember it, the design was not intended to be an easily removable baffle.
I faintly remember it being held with three rivets on the inner plate, with the baffle in the centre. You could drill out the rivets but then the plate would come away and there would not be anything to hold the wadding in place-but may be wrong.

I can ring P&H for you to find out for sure as I know they stocked them and plenty of people must have asked.

As for noise they were not loud (they were on a cat fitted bike when I heard them)- I would recommend binning the cat and using a y-pipe instead. That *will* increase the sound but to a good, not wake the dead level.

UPDATE

The good news is yes you can take out the baffles they are held by circlips (apparently the "early" versions had non removeable ones according to P&H)
The not so good news is Yoshi don't make a y piece.

Cool. I think Arrow do an off the shelf cat eliminator pipe-presumably the geometry + dimensions must be the same as standard.

Akrapovic although it's part of their open slip on system so might have different dimensions.

Ah ha-they do I had it in my gruppy hand yesterday-I misunderstood the people anyway-I get to choose "Slip-Ons" not a full system but they said that if I go for it they will throw in the y-piece which is nice as its about and extra 170 quid!!! eekk for a small piece of shaped titanium BTY all the yoshi bits are from the Land of the Rising Sun NOT Obama Country-so I assume better quality.
The deal is dependant mainly on how much I get for thr B-King though as trying to sell it private is a nightmare as people keep getting turned down for Finance One guy only wanted 30% and didnt even get that although he was a proven customer ) Should know whats happening by Monday as there may be an offer at the mo
