I am kind of OCD with symmetry so while most bikes have only one pipe where there are dual pipes or single under tail pipes I like those even more. I do not even have a rational reason really. I really do like the quality of Yoshi's exhausts though they are probably the hottest units out there.

The thing that gets me about Yoshimura is that the US division uses a lower grade carbon fiber. The craftsmenship on the exhaust is not up to par with the Yoshimura Japan stuff either.

Uhm, I kind of doubt your Cyclone is louder than the m4. Don't get me wrong, I've heard the cyclone and it's loud. The m4 has more of that high pitched loudness, sorta like the f4 cars, the cyclone kinda leans a bit more towards the throaty sound. Maybe that's whats throwing my ears off when I've heard them in person. I don't know.

I haven't read anything about m4's quality yet. I've already been doing quite a bit of reading on the Gixxer forums ( I see your ass whoring it up on there haha) I've rocked it on my r6 and loved it. Show me some post's on it somewhere. Oh, and you're also crazy about the r55. Thats the hott bizz right now.

I love my TRC and i think it sounds nice.....its loud, but not obnoxious loud. To tell you the truth i havent really been able to hear someone drive my bike since the exhaust has been broken in, but i just installed my k&N filter and did new plugs and it feels like a whole new bike. Oh just hit 10k mile

Where have you heard a Cyclone in person? I'm quite sure I'm the only local guy to have one. There aren't too terribly many in the US to begin with. I think Jamie is/was the only guy importing them.

The M4 still has an extra muffler (and cat?) under the bike. The Cyclone doesn't. Have you heard either in person? I tested my pipe at 122.4 db in the driveway at 10 feet. I've got a sound level meter whenever you want to use it.

Read a little about m4 more on gixxer.com. Look for the user Jasondd23.

And don't get me fucking started on the R55 either.
