well i dont know about brands but i can tell you do not get those open pipes like you see on these sporty bikes. those short open pipes kill your power. the yahmaha needs backpressure to produce power. it will get louder and sound good sure. but you will acually loose power. you need a high flow pipe but one that has a good amount of back pressure. you do not wont an open pipe of any kind on that bike. you will loose power and fuel economy. the only thing you gain from that it sound. you just need some kind of oem performance replacment pipe. any race track certified pipe will do. just stay away from these open pipes they will just make it loud and kill your power. i dont know brands of pipes. my guys always handle that stuff. so i cant relly tell you what one to look at. but i do know open pipes on the yamaha kill your perfomance. you need a closed pipes but ones without baffels so you still can get that beastly sound. just examine the pipe and if you can look down inside of it like the hollow tube just keeps going stright through to the ather end. then say no to that pipe. you want a small baffel at the rear to give you good back pressure. so if you can see down inside the pipe then thats bad. ofcourse you can see all the way through its curved. but if you take a bright flash light on one end. and you can see light the the hole in the ather end. thats to open. you shouldnt be able to see past the baffel.

I just got a yamaha R6 and am very happy with the bike but would like new Exhaust system. And because I'm new to the whole bike world I need some help in picking some out..... like types and/or brands names to look for.
