Can looks decent, bit too long though

Horrid. Still, each to their own.

Ugly! Looks like someone has stuck a can from a 98' R1 on it. Very odd...

hideous and retrograde!

Now maybe people will start to understand why Eric Buell went with massive mufflers directly underneath the engines and, in fact, held a patent (now expired) on that. You can't continue to increase the displacement and RPM red lines and still get away with compact mufflers.

I think they really would have had to try to make that can any more ugly.

everyone is just going to mod it anyway. Termi's and Akra in the US and UK. In Japan, Arata and Beet Nassert will have a field day with the bike.

It's only the current fashion to have short silencers, and anyway it only matters to those to those more concerned with how it looks than how it goes. These things come and go and next year no one will care.

The can looks like hell. Agreed that aesthetics don't trump performance... If it works, so be it.

I bet the original designer of the Panigale winces everytime he/she sees that!
