For those considering it on an Akra Hex can for the 06 R6. The measurement is 15" around. So the one you order must be at least that long.

Instead of rubber hose around the exhaust wouldn't it be more tidy and more effective to have a frame slider attached to the exhaust mounting bolt? Might be cheaper too, but I'm too busy to do the web search thingy.
Its not a rubber hose. This Muffler Slider was crashed tested twice by a Kawasaki factory 250 supermoto racer....once was a 4th gear WFO low side. Would a rubber hose have survived that? The material is specially formulated and manufactured for the Muffler Slider application. .
The melting issue has been resolved by the addition of 2 different heat barriers that, depending on the application, are included in the kit. There are many road racers currently running the Muffler Sliders all over the USA.
These work I have seen them tested on lots of supermoto bikes. I have them on both of mine and I had one melt on the street DRZ400SM and was given a replacement right away. With the heat sheild I have not had any more melting even on the freeway with a DRZ400SM and they are pretty much topped out on the freeway. GREAT PRODUCT! GREAT SERVICE! I had a problem and it was taken care of quickly, what more can I say.
trying to order a couple XL black ones and I keep getting an error on the site. Somethings got to help me quit breaking cans in half. Z
Yeah, like that! Although i can see how the tip of the muffler might get nicked. But a slider might give very good protection to one of the new R6s with the shorty can.
