Two Brothers Exhaust review

[Erik]

So today I added and two brothers alum exhaust and a K&N air filter. For those who don't know the exhaust kit by two brothers also comes with a fender eliminator kit. The install took me about 4 hours for both working by myself. It was the first time removing any panels or anything so that took up a good chunk of time.

So the exhaust and fender kit looks AWESOME!!!. The install was pretty easy. Some kinks I ran into was the wiring. According to the instructions you are only suppose to have to splice the wires to your plate light. I ended up having to splice everything and even cannibalize the wires off the old fender. Its a high quality product that I am happy I got.

Now I must the sound you hear on the videos on youtube and such give this exhaust no credit at all. It sounds completely different. It is LOUD!. I mean really loud and deep. It sounds great. After I installed it I was pretty tired so I didn't play with it too much yet. I let you guys know how it the throttle response and such goes. I am really happy with it but the decibel level of the exhaust was a lot louder than I though it would be.

I am still unsure if I need a power commander. I'm gonna change the spark plugs and run it later this week to get an idea if I need to get it remapped or power commander. If anyone has crossed this bridge before please give me a heads up with your findings. Thank!

Post a sound clip if you can. I'm torn between the 2 Bros and the Lazer Extreme. I'm not looking for a performance gain; just better sound.

before I bought it I watched a lot of sound clips and I gotta say they do the sound no justice. It sounds a lot different. I really love the deep sounds it gives off.

I agree completely. The videos are crap! Two Bros is deep and loud and has a great rumble at idle and low RPMs. As far as the Lasers go, I can't speak for the sound, but I like 2 fat carbon fiber pipes of the Two Bros more than 4 skinny chrome pipes of the Lasers. Chrome looks strange on an FZ6. To each his own though!

So i rode for a good couple of hours here today and I noticed a pretty big difference in the throttle response. The sound is growing on me and I am loving the exhaust more and more! Here are some pics I took when I got home.

Ya, I'm on the fence on which brand to buy. My stock exhaust sounds good in my garage and it also sounds good to me at about 8K RPM on up but when I had my tires replaced last month the mechanic took it out for a spin around the block and I wasn't too impressed with the sound of the bike. I don't want to be cruiser loud, just a bit louder and deeper. BTW- Is the 2 Bros a full system or a slip-on? Thanks!

Slip on, If you want to be just a little bit louder then I would not recommend two brothers. Two Brothers is considerably louder. But I tell you I was kind of in the same boat you were about where I wanted the sound to be. But now that I have the two brothers I really really do like it. When I am riding now I don't hear the engine, just the exhaust. When running at high RPM's It sounds like a millions bucks.
