If going for a sporty look I say slash cut. If you have bags and look more tourer the turn out may look good. I prefer slash cut myself.

If the mufflers are Motoasia brand, save your money for something better. I have one of their glaspacs, it is absolutely a waste of money. Motoasia is JC Whitless, ShadeTree, DK and related budget line.

Thank you on that -- I was looking at JCW even tho' I have gotten so much junk from them I should know better.

I'm looking, eventually, for a long pipe with a fishtail at or slightly beyond the back of the tire.

Hey, no fair. I already run one of those. The cheapo JCW junker. Next time, I'm getting the pieces from the hot rod car aftermarket. Stainless steel, not much more expensive in the long run.

I've tried one of the JC slashback mufflers on a little 250cc Ducati from the late 60's. It made the bike louder than my Savage with a stock unit on it.  Grin The quality is pretty cheap but it is better than nothing. Keep an eye out on e-bay, fishtailed exhausts show up all the time. Ride Safe

I think I'll try the slash cut then.
For £30 if they do turn out to be cheap and nasty I've not lost nothing..

Those look to be EXACTLY the same cheapo pieces as the Motasia/Emgo garbage. Only so many Taiwanese aftermarket suppliers...
Maybe they'll work for awhile. The packing is fairly low-grade glassfibre. The chrome is very thin. Be prepared to spend some extra time polishing and repacking. They'll look/sound alright IF you put in the extra time on them.

That EXUTAP 15 looks like one I bought for my SR 500 a long time ago.
