Riders who race know Yoshimura is the leading name in high performance exhausts, with a heritage stretching back decades, especially when it comes to Suzuki Superbikes. But whether you race, or simply enjoy trackdays, these four Tri-Oval slip-ons for the GSXR1000 K7-K8 series offer excellent performance, genuine Made-in-Japan build quality and rakish good looks.

The stock silencer on the K7-K8 series GSXR1000 weighs in at some 10.3Kgs, but fitting any of the four Yoshimura slip-ons saves 7Kgs (after removing the catalyzer) or more. There's a range of finishes available, including stainless steel, titanium, carbon and the new `Metal Magic' finish, which looks like carbon fibre, but is in reality made from stainless steel. Each of the four sleeve options comes with a carbon fibre end cone.

Yoshimura develop their products in the white heat of competition, and a run on the dyno will show that these new slip-ons can raise the GSXR1000's power output by a healthy margin, especially in the mid-range. With the optional dB killers removed from the slip-ons, there will be a useful increase in maximum bhp at the higher end of the rev range too.

The latest Tri-Oval Yoshimura slip-on for the Suzuki GSXR1000 K7-K8 arrives in dealerships across the UK in late February 2008, although supply will be limited by the factory in Japan.

The optional dB killers reduce the maximum noise level emitted from the Tri-Oval slip-on to 99dB, and cost an extra £32.28 (inc VAT).

Prices - Four Different Styles

  • Stainless steel - £500.32 (inc VAT) - Part No. 150-508-5N50
  • Titanium - £540.67 (inc VAT) - Part No. 150-508-5N80
  • Carbon Fibre - £613.29 (inc VAT) - Part No. 150-508-5N90
  • Metal Magic - £556.81 (inc VAT) - Part No. 150-508-5N20
