Muzzys Exhaust possible - Yamaha FZ6R Forums - International FZ6R / XJ6 Motorcycle Community Forum

jspansel · 03-02-2010, 03:41 PM

I've been talking with Muzzys since they are right here local to me now. I will be meeting with them sometime this week or next so they can do a look over on the bike to see what they may be able to come up with. If they decide to pursue one, they will use my bike for the R&D

I'd like to show them some interest in their prodoct. If you would be interested in one of their exhausts, please vote. I like their GP Style! Or if they stuck with a stealth one like stock, thats good too!

Please vote!

For the engine in this bike, I think something a little more beefy sounding that stock would be appropriate. I like the gp style megaphones on other more race oriented bikes, but it doesn't seem like it would match the characteristics of this engine very much (ie: lack of top end power, tamed down version of the fz6/r6)

That being said, something that added a couple more horsepower, higher-flowing with a little bit of growl, and didn't break the bank like the two bros' is definitely a product that I would get behind. Looking forward to what you find out!

Not to ruin your high on this, but I tried pursuing them this past summer/fall. They told me that there isn't enough demand here in the Northwest for the exhaust so they told me tough luck

. But if you can get one made using your bike hooray! But I went through what you're doing now. They don't really "look" at the bike. With me, they walked out with me and looked at the exhaust box and said "Well, we'll get in touch with you". Oh it infuriated me. But let us know how it turns out.

I don't doubt it hehe. But the guy with the glasses is who I talked to. I can't remember his name. I went in there one day just to check out what they had to offer, told them what bike I had and they were like children finding out they were going to chuck-e-cheeses. They gave me all the talk about how they would use my bike as a prototype and I was super excited! My coworkers friend is the guy that actually gets the bike after they make the exhause and test the exhaust on the bike to make sure everything is kocher. So I had everything set up and ready to drop my bike off and they told me there wasn't enough "demand".

My wife has a muzzy on her ninja 500r and I LOVE the sound of her bike. If they came out with an exhaust with that sort of sound for our bikes I would be all over it. Very interested in what they have to say.

surely they want a piece of the market...I can't imagine that they would leave Two Bros to their devices as the only company with an aftermarket exhaust for this bike...maybe they will.

Hmm.. well that sucks. They have pics of my bike and we spoke a bunch through email, they then decided to actually call me and have me come in, so maybe thats a good sign. Either way, it wont hurt to try
