Why is kawi obsessed with ugly exhaust? They have everything run in a way that would be super clean, and then put a hideous exhaust can on it... Z1000, connie, H2, seriously...

When I pulled my potato launcher on the C14 I was shocked at how heavy it is. I replaced it with a Leo Vince slip on which with the baffle in is certified in Europe for direct factory replacement to meet sound and emissions requirements. Probably 1/4 the weight. Why can't Kawi do that from the factory?

The H2 still has to meet all the government requirements world wide, for volume and gasious emissions, and that flared look has become a signature lately.  At $25K, probably won't be a big seller, like a ZX10R, so aftermarket may not put much effort into a replacement for a while.  Now the H2R, exhaust, on the other hand. . . sweet it is.

I agree the H2R exhaust is beautiful. I'm looking forward to an aftermarket version.
