ORIGINAL: StrikeAnywhere

Mine has been on for a while now with over 1000 miles on it. It is loud. Don't take anybody's opinion that doesn't own one.

There is an adjustable plate/disc at the end of the can that opens and closes the exhaust output for varying backpressure and noise level. While this feature is not exactly designed by a NASA engineer it does work to add and/or decrease backpressure and to change the powerhouse tone.

Im still glad I bought it cause I like loud, I have run mine wide open and right now its about 25% open. Quality of materials and construction is actually pretty good since it is a relatively thick piece of machined aluminum. Quality of fit and finish (exterior appeal to the eye) is about a "B" but overall I would have to say its solid and I have not had any problems out of mine.

Its also the shortest most minimal can out there which is exactly what I wanted.

Last, it is priced way high but like I said I am still glad I bought it.

Shawnyc (sp) of this forum recently bought one, maybe he will dropby
Hey Strike hey guys, I bought one of these to replace my D&D. As far as a db level I think it’s the same as the D&D but it seems louder because the location of pipe. Like Strike said, the slider that lets you adjust the backpressure and sound isn't groundbreaking engineering but it actually works incredibly well. You DO have to trim your fairing a little to get the proper fit but if you have a dremmel handy it’s a 5 minute job. X2 on the price but face it, if you buy an exhaust that you like it should last you the life of the bike. So whats another $100 or so? Not much more to add let me know if you have any questions.

hey strike. what kind of performance did you notice from this pipe?
With the sliding tuning disc all the way open I noticed a drop in torque due to low backpressure. The wide open setting is also L-O-U-D when you get on the throttle. I run it about 70% closed and all is well with performance, not really much of a change from the stock can. It probably would dyno a few more hp at 9500+ rpm but how often do you get to feel/use that. Its probably 10 pounds lighter than the stock diesel stack as well.
