Many consider me to be an exhaust guru. That being said, why don't Yamaha design the exhaust go straight back? Would perform way better than the double wrap around? Science proves this to be the best performance, plus it would decrease weight, probably wouldn't pass the bull spit AMA sound regulations. They gotta go, somebody overthrow the AMA/fim already. We don't need their regulations and doping test that everybody passes anyways

They don't design it going straight back because exhaust pulse timing matters...which correlates directly with the length of the exhaust. Same reason many engines have different length velocity stacks.
