General new bike muffler question

He needs a Cosmo Kramer Bro for support.

It's a Man-siere!

So today, I open my current issue of Rider magazine and what do I see? A Ninja1000 with the most hideous 4into2into4 Ultraman exhaust pipes. WTF?Are they in collusion with the aftermarket guys to ensure that everyone will yank those ugly F**Ks off the bike and spend $1000 for nicer more pleasing looking pipes even if the factory jobs are much better than any aftermarket pipe?

Just put on some V&H Urban Brawlers for <$200.


Or some M4s for <$400

I always thought the underbody mufflers like the Buells had were much better looking, sounding and also put all that weight lower.
