Couple of scrapes? I suppose that might lead to them going for a good price. Was never that bothered about light cosmetic damage so I might have a bid.

A 2 into 1 pipe on a twin gives more midrange, yes? Would this free up much poke over standard downpipes if I switched to FCRs in the future?

Actually, in the back of my mind I'm concerned about getting the original downpipes off! Judging by other posts on this site it can be quite difficult? They certainly look like they've welded themselves on....

Generally speaking, 2 into 1 is more suitred to top end gains not midrange.

The stock headers restrict flow a fair bit so you can expect maybe 5-7bhp over stock. And an akra will be more suited to FCRs.

Akra is....what? 2"? 52mm? Guess you can fit a lot of cans to that!
Although, ALL bikes looks better with two cans....that´s it!

A 2-1-2 Akra with hexagonal would be the shiate!!
