Im picking up my first bike (2013 fz8) next week and am looking at exhausts. I'd like something pretty loud like Mivv Double Gun or Danmoto XG 1. Any input on this? Do these do anything to your mileage or performance? Any other options for these types of exhausts? Any advice for a new rider would be great as well!
Exhaust proposals?

What's your budget is the question??
If you can afford it...check out graves full exhaust.....it will turn your exhaust into a true low mount, it will give you some awesome power gains...and it is pretty loud
For budget exhaust..Coffman, danmoto, mivv
Then slip on options which are both loud and fancy looking annnd improve power a tiny bit
Yoshimura, graves slip on, Akropovic, and I'm sure there are a bunch more in both categories but I can't think of em off the top of my head

Def liking the Coffman.. I'm liking the colored tips as well..seeing as though my wheels are the blue the blue tip is going to look sick.
Thanks for the tip!
Danmoto GP Carbon, $150 shipped from their website. Pretty loud with a nice low grumble, and looks pretty dang good for a "cheap" slip on. Carbon fiber wrapped around an all stainless case. Hand welded (and the seams look nicely done). I'm sure there are better looking ones, but I really like the look of this one... and the price didn't hurt at all

Since you mentioned the price of that Danmoto, their XG-1 looks like what I'm going to go for when it comes to my exhaust mod. $135 is hard to beat, especially with the look I was hoping for (almost, and with work, an MV Agusta Brutale 1090 slash-cut).
Just installed a full akrapovic exhaust today with a pc5 and autotune.

There is a cool $2,000! Sweet! Where's pics and video
Will upload some soon.. still gotta get under tank and put in the smog block off plates. I have read a lot of people on forums saying full exhaust isn't worth it but I feel a boost in the bike even if it's placebo I don't care !
I would have gotten Graves but the black carbon fiber akra pipe looks sick on the black 2011 model. Also the full system isn't overly loud... I feel like loud may get annoying after awhile especially on longer rides.

I have the Mivv Double Gun and love it. It is loud but has a nice throaty sound to it. It's stainless steel, raw metal finish is really nice looking and the welding is done by hand so they all are unique in there own way. I noticed a small hp gain with it but nothing to crazy.
