Are they decent enough?

I have been offered a branny for mine for good money but initially was after an Arrow or Akra,
Would I be disappointed with if I bought the Scorpion?
Its replacing a standard end can on a GSXR k2

They're great. Theres a little carbon one on the R6 I use. Stupidly loud. Really really loud. Deafening in fact. Sounds like an F1 car when you push on.

Yep, great cans. Popular, and for good reason. Not silly money either. Sounded fantastic with the removable baffles, noticeable power gain, and no downsides.

Scorpion ones are fine, sound cool too!
Had a viper...
Was listed in the shop for about £160.
As it was their last one they sold it to me with a link pipe & fittings for £90.
It was fecking loud and sounded really nice!

get a stubby scorpion i had a stainless on my 2005 r6 with a massive bore. it was seriously loud and spat nice big flames. set up nice with a power commander, filter and quick shift gave a really really good improvement on roar and speed

I have Scorpions on my SV thou, and they sound fantastic, especially with the baffles out - deep and sonorous, cloud9 but not offensively loud...I've had lots of folk commenting on how good the bike sounds..
Don't know how much they were, they were on the bike when I got it..

Conversly I had them on my old TL1000. Jesus they were LOUD.

Would literally shake the windows of the house when started.

I loved them.
