    GW in 2015, 2016 and 2017 had black mufflers that had better ground clearance and were quieter than the F6Bs.

    I didn't realize the GW had better ground clearance during those years, but now that you mention it, I haven't scraped the pegs nearly as much on my 2016 F6B as on my 2013. Maybe the F6B had more clearance too. I thought the dealer might have bumped up the rear shock preload.

    I stated the GW has better clearance which is due from the shorter angle up exhaust tip. BTW, the tip can not be swapped without modifications since the F6B exhaust silencer has a larger diameter outlet which is longer. The outlet would need to be cut and then the tip would not slip on due to the diameter difference. Keep in mind I am talking about the outlet tip after you remove the chrome/black beauty tip which is held on by screws.

    So are you saying the muffler diameter is different, or the muffler tail pipe under the tip is different.
