I'm torn between the "looks" of 2 slip on exhaust systems for my ZX14R and would like your opinion on which one would you choose of the "two". Barring brand names and any preconceived likes/dislikes you may have for one brand or the other, so only if you had to keep one and get rid of the other...which one is the keeper? If neither then that's fine also but it's not included as a vote. LOL

Thanks in advance!

I decided to sport the Voodoo's since everyone I've asked says without a doubt they're the way to go. I've asked family, friends and fellow riders and 100% everyone went with the Voodoo's. All along I was heavily leaning towards them, because they simply fill the back end of what is a visually big bike, and IMO the bigger slip ons balances out the front and back portions of the bike. Thanks to the 2 people who participated in the poll, although I was hoping for more participation. It appears that this section of the forum is pretty much dead, and probably won't revive with more activity/traffic unless Kawi drops a Gen III....which I highly doubt since the 14 is only sold in a few markets and being somewhat replaced by the H2 SX.

Any how, here's a pic of my final exhaust with some tid bits that I added since the time when I started this poll.

I see that it's lowered now and that seems to cause the rear wheel to disappear up into the bike like it just came from a cold swim in the pool.

That being said, it would look pretty fricken sweet if you stretched that swingarm a bit.

Thanks Porschenut! I do plan to stretch it but only a subtle 4-6 inches, just enough to bring the tire out from under the wheel well.

I've heard the m4's but they just don't look right to me on the bike. You still enjoying the new exhaust? Been kind looking at these myself.

In the beginning I wasn't too fond of their looks either (anemic looking for such a big bike) but they eventually grew on me, and they sound amazingly good. However, two months ago I moved on to the Brock's Dual Alien Head setup. I also purchased the Akra race headers and the alien heads mounted up to it nice and snug. This was the cheapest alternative for me to upgrade to a full exhaust system and maintain the dual exhaust appearance, which I prefer, without breaking my bank account.

Since my last post I've added a 8" stretch and geared it down to 16/43. The massive power is now manageable since I now have the stretch and lower gearing, with minimum wheel spin. I've been handing out beat downs to every liter bike that has challenged me including S1KRR's. I should've stretched it a long time ago but I was skeptical because of all the internet chatter that when you stretch a bike you're basically destroying it handling capabilities. Now I beg to differ since I've now took the plunge and went the stretch route.
