I saw the race kit for the XB on the Buell website. Is it out yet? Anyone have it installed? What are the power gains? Any holes in the powerband? Thanks |

Can someone tell me what the race kit muffler sounds like? Hemi |

Hey Lloyd. Vroom Vroom? Sorry, I couldn't help myself. It probably sounds like the race can for the 1200's. I don't see any way to repack it. Does it open up? If not, it's most likely a little louder. The dual outlets might reduce the thump a little.(?) Archer has one on order. If you can wait a while, I might be able to get a sound clip posted somewhere. |

I have the race kit installed. For $620 or less, the power gain is DEFINITELY worth it. I just put mine on the dyno Friday, pulling 82.7hp and 66.2 ft/lbs. Was about 70 degrees and humid, if you care to know. And the muffler sounds INCREDIBLE. It's just as loud as the Pro Series cans for the tube framers. I ride with two M2s with them and an X1 with a Vance and Hines, and I'm just as loud and I think it's a cleaner sound as well. 'ware, though, installing the muffler can be a pain in the ass. Hope you've got a service manual. Bryan |
