So my buddy has a magnaflow muffler and said that I can have it. I was wondering if it was possible to put it on my XB9s. Im gonna go to a couple muffler shops and ask them what they can do one of these days. Im just wondering if it would make some power or even sound good. Or if its too much trouble otherwise Im gettin a drummer. |

Preybird1, There is a section in the knowledge vault on this very exhaust which used to be offered as a fitment to the XB models. |

Hmm.. aftermarket exhaust system: average of let's say $500 - depending on which brand you get. Then you can claim credit for bolting on some parts that you bought. make your own setup: probably a max of $200 and you can claim credit for MAKING it yourself! I'd opt for the latter if I had the skills or tools to do that type of work. Go for it Kevin - I'm anxious to see pics of your work. |

I have the magnaflow on mine too. So far I love it. Like pogue, I have around $100 in it. do a search for magnaflow 11148 in the archives. |

Do a little looking - car mufflers on a Buell are more common then you think. |
