This looks very good and sounds great, but:

1 just curious if it is too loud and you had any tickets or warnings about it. Some states have decible level limits. I am in CA and it may not be an issue.
2 I see that your passenger foot pegs are removed and the rear shock adjustment can is moved. Where did you mount it? Would you be willing to post a picture of that?

I love the way the pipes sounds but in some downtown areas i feel like i have a hard time trying to ride to keep it quiet to not attract attention to myself from 5-0. I would say it is around 115 db's

I will take some pictures of the location of the shock adjuster soon and post it up for you as well.

So... If I switch to this exhaust from stock and have already switched my filter over to a K&N drop in should I rejet?

How do I know if my bike is running to lean? I'd like to make this switch but just spent a bunch of money having my carbs cleaned, tuned for Denver's 5280 altitude and sync'd. I'd hate to have to have them pulled again only to rejet and spend even more money.

Personally I am not all that concerned about a performance increase. I am more interested in making the bike louder. The people here drive like complete idiots and do not pay attention I figure allowing them to hear me is a good way to get their attention.

I have one on my bike and can tell you that switching to this kind of exhaust really decreases the backpressure considerably! If you pair that will a K&N filter, you will definitely want to jet your bike. I just got done installing a FactoryPro jet kit, and it makes quite a bit of difference.

If you are worried about paying a bunch to have everything re-tuned, I would recommend doing it yourself. You will save a TON of money, and will be able to re-tune it in the future to make any tweaks or adjustments that might be necessary.

Good luck!

ive got this muffler and I have taken it apart, and checked it all out. It was basicly an autozone tip, with another peice of exhaust pipe bolted inside. There was a small amount of packing that looked like fiberglass insulation for a house.

Got mine threw after waiting 3 weeks and still getting no reply to my emails to the seller but it was so worth the wait and fearing it would never come threw lol

Trying ride at the speed limit (60mph) from mine to ace cafe london the other night which is about 80 miles was a little annoying not the volume as such but the tone at the same revs and same gear for a while, but riding home at 1am on dead A'roads at a slightly increased pace was F*cking Orgasmic.
