finally fitted the exhaust. Have to say im very pleased. Its fits well and isnt noisy which is what i wanted. IF anyone wants an aftermarket sysytem i would def recommend this one with the cat in the front pipe,a lot of money but you get arrow quality :D :D

The pics are so tiny, you can hardly tell how good it looks! :lol:

But really, that looks awesome. Be sure to update with how it holds up.

Have you noticed any issues with the ecu/pgm-fi thingy since putting on the arrow? Or did the engine just adjust itself without incident?

So, if I understand it correctly, we don't need to change anything else in the motor like the nozzles or something.

I love the exhaust you have but wanna do the change myself.

Sounds a simple swap unlike the SV650 after market pipe I put on which required cutting the original pipe.

What do people think of this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HONDA-PCX125- ... 906wt_1297

I don't care about their claims about bhp etc. I'm just interested in getting a reasonable stainless system.

It's a knock-off Yoshimura, but it's stainless... As long as the welds and finish don't rust, I'm sure it'd work fine. Since it is a knock-off though, it might rust worse than the stock pipe. :lol:

just an update for you all
exhaust is fine the only niggle is that there is a very small flat spot at around 20mph when starting off from cold,but have to say within a mile or so its gone and def picks up better from 40 to top speed,overall a lot of money but worth the extra,clean it once a week as its used rain or shine and still looks like new
good product overall
cheers Trigg

I am thinking of adding an exhaust to the Forza. The stock exhaust has an utterly dull aound thats sounds some wimpy. Does anyone know 2 things of mine about the Arrow 2.0 exhaust that is going for 394 USD on ebay.

1. Do you need to do some fuel mapping?
2. Is this the exhaust that needs the baffles to be replaced say after 10k mines on it?
