sorry the road bike does have the top exhaust but doesn't have the side ones

Still not much good if you have a bip
maybe they could do a upgrade kit ?

I think you will find they have no intention of doing a 'bip' 'sedici Keefer-apart from the one that Randy Mamola rides................

Would be a good to have done it that way for the mono and done it the 916 way for the bip. A superbike aint a superbike when its carrying pillion.

the 749/999 rear, where form follows function AND looks good, a great piece of design IMHO
