Quality, style, great sound - all in one
I've installed this exhaust on a 2019 Yamaha XSR700.
Installation is quite straightforward, parts are explicitly numbered. Lining up the exhaust manifold pipes with the muffler so that everything fits and nothing is strained requires some trial and error as there's no marking on the parts suggesting the correct position. Also, the securing springs are in a weird position and the whole assembly feels loose/has a lot of play, until the muffler is fastened with the bracket, then everything fits tight.
The appearance is a lot cleaner and more elegant, but also more "mature" than the OEM exhaust.
Sound-wise, the muffler has a strong low-rpm grunt, and a rich, growling sound to it, while not being excessively loud. It's a perfect symphony of power, character and elegance.
