    Recently purchased & mounted a GPR Powercone low can to my 2019 'RS.' It exposes the carbon rear mudguard & follows the lines of the wheel. I didn't compare the weight of old vs new but I'm guessing it's substantial. I bought the kit advertised for model years 2011-2015 because it was half the price (310 USD) of the latest EVO5 version. Not sure what the differences are. The supplied hanger did not work. I cut it down, drilled some holes...you can't even notice it. The sound (dB killer installed) is close to the OE Arrow system. At idle & blipping the throttle it is possibly a tad more loud. Hitherto I have not rode the bike but will once the snows disappear & the roads dry out a bit.

    I personally favour the twin high cans, but that looks brutal!

    Looking great! Apart from the hanger, was the diameter of the pipe connectors ok? I understand the heat shielding had to go

    The Arrow twin-cans are sitting on the self. I'll hang onto them albeit I have little reason to think I might swap back. Hitherto there is nothing I dislike about the GPR can.

    The diameter of the 'pipe connector' & the curves, i.e. shape are spot-on. The exhaust springs fit perfectly. Only the hanger didn't work - not even close.

    I have GPR can on my DRZ and I find it very loud with the DB Killer in. Not massively impressed by the build quality to be honest. the matt black finish is flaking. will keep it till it falls apart though :):)

    Agree to an extent the black finish is not exactly hard wearing,easy to repaint but should be better coating imho,you can get discounted on their website sometimes.
