This exhaust any good?

My sources say under seat pipes make a hell of a lot more power anywhere and that the underbelly pipes is a very, very bad poor thought out idea. I would rather have a super fast functional bike than a looker than can not utilize its full potential.
Oh and if my grammar sucks I am Afrikaans and not English. :p
 
Maybe the plumbing is better for lower rpm torque with longer runners, but having the weight of the exhaust concentrated down low and near the center of the bike was one of the reasons for doing so. Spreading the weight back out will increase the polar moments of inertia.

The previous Ducatis did pretty well even if it had a geater polar movement of inertia. The underseat pipes do not only make more power in the lower rpm ranges, it makes more power (KW's and Torque) everywhere including up top.
 
I grew up close to the werks factory in Oregon.
I owned a pipe for my honda. (It was all I could afford)

This is what happens when you jig up a pipe while smoking weed.

I'm not impressed. The other parts are also so-so.
 
The under seat exit improves high speed aero, improves top end, fills the void and turbulence at the rear of the bike. The new moto 3 Honda is a good example, they have top end over the KTM and exhaust exit plays a big part.
