The Drag Cyclone is both dynamic and elegant
"Drag Cyclone" is the name of a series that YOSHIMURA released in the 90s and 2000s. This new Drag Cyclone also retains design elements from the past, such as the tapered silencer shape that gets wider towards the end. The Drag Cyclone for the Eliminator 400 was also unveiled at this year's Tokyo Motorcycle Show and may still be fresh in many people's memories.
The internal construction is infused with the latest technology to achieve both increased power and quietness. The dynamic styling, with a maximum diameter of φ110, gives it a more massive look than the stock exhaust. The silencer end is machined from an aluminum block, and the entire exhaust is painted matte black to streamline the look of the underside of the bike. The black and silver color scheme of the emblem also create a tasteful look for an exhaust that provides both power and elegance.



Strong power and torque with a deep sound, all while reducing weight
Of course, being a YOSHIMURA exhaust, the attention to detail is not limited to design. Compared to the stock exhaust, torque is of course increased, as well as power at low and high RPMs. The sound quality has a little more bass than stock, and the depth is what you would expect from its appearance and characteristics. Even though it is made of stainless steel, the weight has been reduced from the stock 4.3kg to 2.8kg for the Drag Cyclone.
