Roper... A very long time ago I put a set of Slip-Ons on the VFR 750. What a mistake. The sound was good, louder but the rumble was gone. The V-Four has this certain exhaust note as it revs up. Pure music to my ears. The VF500 had it as does my VFR. Spent the cash many years later to get the stock exhaust back on it. I will never change a thing on this bike. It is amazing and will be the last bike I ever sell.
I guess I miss the days of the multi cylinder small bore bikes. The VF500 was amazing. The CB350 Four is absolute music to my ears as are any of the vintage Honda In-Line fours. I am sure that these engines were expensive to build. May not pass emissions if made now. But can you imagine a 350 Four with 4 valve heads, fuel injection and a separate pipe for each cylinder. The Kawasaki Ninja 250 could rev to 14,000 rpm. A 350-Four could do the same! That would be an amazing limited run bike to build. The sound! OMG! It would be so amazing.
Do not get me talking about the Multi Cylinder 2-Strokes! LOL!
