I think my chin fairing won't fit, so no, I don't like it. |

I've got that exact same one on my xb12 and haven't had any problems after about 10K miles. It is pretty loud, after all it's a straight pipe. No mounts for the chin fairing. The headers connect with springs so there's nothing to crack or break..... |

As duff said the new version uses springs and Is a bit better than the tuber version and the old version for the xbs |

Too loud, too thin of metal, too much money. After one blowing the o2 sensor out(took 1/2 of pipe around the bung) I will never use their products. Even with earplugs my ears hurt from a 5 min. ride. |
