I have a two brothers pipe/w cat eliminator and I think it sounds kick-ass! The pipe was new & the bike had about 1K on it when I put it on and after 7k I still think it sounds great! Just the right amount of ‘throat’ for my taste.
The only other after-market pipe I’ve heard for our bike is a Ztecknic and even though I thought it looked cool the sound that came out the end made me think ‘dirt bike’ so I wasn’t too impressed.
Nice part is the money I saved by not spending a grand on an exhaust pipe allowed me to have my head & Y pipes coated at Jet Hot for a nice clean ‘matched’ look.
Only down side I can think of is that the ‘can’ is the repackable style so eventually I’ll have to do that but the kit is only about $20.00 so no big deal.
I won’t make any wild horsepower claims but it sure sounded faster & felt faster so….
One thing I would recommend though is the titanium ‘can’ because aluminum is just too damn hard to keep clean! At least on an exhaust anyway.
Good luck & enjoy! Jeff

Of all the things I’ve lost… I miss my mind the most!
