ricerbird Posted November 21, 2017 Author Share Posted November 21, 2017 Sorry guys I haven’t logged on here since the site went through the change and we had to reset our passwords so I wasn’t getting any notifications until I got a message and it went to my email. And as for the trip it was the most fun I’ve had on a bike ever lol. Police escort and free range to stunt and do whatever we wanted for one whole day. And I trailered it down for the event, I didn’t feel like riding that much down there riding all day and then riding back home for 2 hours at 11:00pm but it got ridden plenty hard while there. Seen many wheelies. Verdict on the pipe is I love it. That sound that these bikes produce is unique and doesn’t sound like anything else on the road. It has such a mean deep tone to it and turns heads everywhere. As for quality this thing has held up great. No discoloration and bluing of the headers and the muffler looks as good as new with a whole riding season on it. So I’d say it was 150 well spent. Of course can’t complain about the 2wdw tune either. I love just cracking the throttle in first on takeoff around 10-15 mph and the front end just raising up with ease just to show off from time to time. All in all I’m happy with the bike. Sure it’s not the “fastest” bike I’ve ever owned but it’s just as fun and that’s all that matters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VertigoTX Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 The trip sounds like it was a blast! It also sounds like you found a good budget pipe/exhaust package. I like the idea of being able to upgrade it later using the header. Perhaps with a used M4 from another member etc... Would you be willing to post a soundbyte of the exhaust? Thanks for the review and links! I've bookmarked this item for future consideration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is a pic from the event if it give you any idea of how that whole day went lol and I’ll try to get a video of the exhaust even though the camera never does it any justice as to how deep the tone is and just how loud it really is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a different vibe down there. And this even is negotiated with the local police and they escort us so that we can stunt and get a little wild. The people in St. Louis are used to this and love it. We were getting filmed the whole time. But Steve and the guys are awesome down there. It’s like family when you go down to ride with them. Even if you don’t stunt it’s still fun to go and watch and ride with the guys. We had several Harley’s in the group Just to watch and some stunt their Harleys too. It’s not for everyone but it’s worth a try even if it’s just once to experience it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VertigoTX Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 @ricerbird, thank you for the sound clips. I think the exhaust sounds pretty good. I especially like the idea that it could be upgraded later with a different slip on. How do you feel the M4 tune works with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricerbird Posted November 23, 2017 Author Share Posted November 23, 2017 I’m happy with it. That was the closest tune seeing as how this pipe is about the same length as the m4 but I’m happy with it. It makes great power. I might have them retune it just for fun since it’s free and cut the injectors on decel cuz maybe I’m weird but I like a little pop and the occasional flame out of my exhaust. I get none of that now with this tune so it’s doing it’s job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
