from memory I think they are a straight fit ( was a while ago so may be mistaken) I do remember the spring retaining lugs don't line up so had them moved on my link pipe.
It actually IS a straight fit, although you need to have some new hooks welded on for the springs... I've done this swap to a mates 1098 with full 70mm exhaust If I can recall correctly, the springs are on the inside with the old style cans, and on the outside on the new style cans...
I've got slash cuts on my 848. I think they are a straight fit without having to re weld the spring clips. I know that the evo pipes are different as I'm fitting some now and the clips need removing and re welding in about 60 degrees on either side. Give us a shout if you need them welding as work's only 10 mins away from your office.
Hmmm, reading this post with interest. I too run a 70mm termi system on my 1098R. And I'm also thinking of switching to slash cut. I've recently had my engine rebuilt and custom mapped and its running great. Will slapping a pair of slash cuts on require another remap??
I recon it doesn't... My mates 1098s ran a slight bit better with the same termi 70mm ECU after the swap! It barks pretty sweet on a small twist of the wrist...
Glad my 848 comes with slash cuts fitted to a full system, they look much nicer than the older termi end cans
I doubt it very much, I have a S2R 1000 with full arrows had it remapped and asked if I change to termi end would there be any difference, apparently not, but never tested it.
I would want it put on the dyno, I am sure the curve on the Arrows is different to the Termi. No two cans will be exactly the same so I would expect a difference between manufacturers cans. If you want bespoke map then every time you change the cans you would have to get it remapped.
