765 Yoshimura At2 Exhaust Install

I stuck a Yoshi on my Street - it was an outstanding exhaust, and the sound was to die for.

 

Hi, you say in the video that you didn't install the db killer and then mention in the text that you ride with it in. Was it so loud that you fitted it after all?
Just ordered the AT2 the other day

Great vid BTW

 

So I did! Probably a few beers in when I read it lol

 

I decided to have a change of exhaust on my 2020 STRS, I removed the original factory exhaust and fitted a Yoshimura when I bought the bike new in 2020. I just fancied another change, and having looked at various aftermarket systems and more importantly the build quality, after weighing everything up I elected to buy a Scorpion, the build quality and finish is excellent, in my opinion it is built better than the Yoshimura, it weighs a little more, however that said it has an S shaped link pipe that really sets it off, the material is a thicker gauge, the removable baffle allen bolt is a lot easier to to access that the Yoshimura, it was also £300 cheaper, all in all I am more than happy with the new system, and it sounds good, though I have yet to test it out on the road.

 

Looks nice, post a vid of how it sounds!
What are you doing with the Yoshi, what drove you to fancying a change?

 

Hi Danny, I just fancied a change, I am lucky enough to be on my 82nd machine, I'm always chopping and changing, it comes from the sixties when anything went with altering your machine, it was all part of the rebellious nature of that era and to see how we could gain extra performance with little outlay, there were a group of us that were "Rockers" by heart and nature, we loved riding, most of us ate slept and awoke thinking bikes, our girlfriends went with us and embraced the lifestyle (no such thing as the snowflake brigade back then) they would have quickly melted away anyway. I have done a few extra tweaks to my STRS including a dyno set up and re map. There is a guy very near me that hand makes motorcycle exhausts, although one of his custom specials would "blast rabbits from holes" (and attract to much attention). My other passion was Mountaineering, Climbing and White Water Kayaking. But I will be a biker until the day I depart. Ride safe from an ageing Rocker.

 

Think you made a good choice there. The Scorpion can looks better than the Yoshi. Any chance of a pic showing the whole bike with the new can?

 

Fantastic, that's a wonderful story, 82 bikes, wow, thanks for sharing!
I grew up just outside of Brighton in the 70s / 80s and remember the old mods and rockers on bank holiday Mondays, not sure if any of that goes on nowadays?
Take care.

She's as Dutch as they come. In fact in addition she's got the EU passport as well.

 

Hi Danny, no thankfully those days are well and truly gone, at almost all bike events people interact positively with others no matter what they ride, scooters, mopeds, trikes etc. It's true the sixties and seventies saw fierce rivalries between groups mainly (Mods and Rockers), that said the media often exaggerated events and whipped up the public to demonise and fear motorcyclists, it's a complex subject, albeit quite fascinating and one that is part of our history and very well documented, when looking back the cultures and sub cultures are fascinating,

 

Hi @Dark Rider, The Yoshi arrived today and I fitted it in no time thanks to your great demo!
I took it out for an hour earlier and noticed a very slight flat spot in the rev range when the throttle is opened a decent amount, around 4-5K rpm.
Have you noticed similar, have you had any fuel remaps done?

 

Thanks man, I'll try and get out for a bit longer tomorrow and see if I still notice it, probably me just being paranoid lol

 

Hi @Dark Rider, I did the adaptive reset, still notice the flat spot. Spoke to Triumph dealer today and they said they have a new fuel map for aftermarket slip-ons and they mentioned that they'd expect a similar situation that I'd explained by changing to a straight through pipe as you'd loose some back pressure. Have booked in for the new map next week, will let you know if it makes a difference.
BTW i'd been riding the bike for 2 years with the stock can so i guess i am more sensitive to a change, i think you changed yours a lot sooner?

 

the sound is to die for though man!!
