It's street legal (not sure about CA); however, I'm thinking it might not pass the maximum dB level restrictions of some areas.

The package from the factory came with the exhaust, belly pan, gel seat, rear seat cowl and bug screen.

I demod that same package last summer. Killer machine...but I didn't think it was very loud even with the Arrows.

.
So it has cats? Just curious where they are, since they are usually in the OEM cans, but aftermarket companies don't make cat converters yet.

When they let you demo it, did you get above 5K RPMs? That's when I feel it gets loud.

I believe the cat is part of the header, down at the bottom.

You are in desperate need of a FE kit. Looks tits from that angle though.

I don't know. Kind of like the odd tail on it. I'm not sure I'll be doing a FE on this bike. It's typically one of the first things I do but I may decline doing so with the S3.

Absolutely. I gave it the berries.

Nice. Maybe I'm just getting old then, since I feel it's pretty loud.

Rear fender looks fine in the 4th pic, but in the 3rd pic it's a bit too obvious.

Regardless, cutting it is only necessary if you're still in your 20's.
