Sorry for not posting this in the KV but I couldn't find anything with the search option. Do any of you have any experience with this exhaust system? Is it an option for the 12 as well or are they just for the 9? I need to replace my headers so I am looking at different options. I am also considering the Micron full system. Thanks. |

What year is your 12? Are you looking at the force exhausts on EBay? I was told by my buddy at Glendale Buell that the Force exhausts don't work on the XB models I was going to put one on my XB9 but my buddy said not too that it will not work. That is all the info I can offer. I never tried to put on one. |

There is one on Ebay that is supposed to be for the XB9 and shows a picture of it on a XB9R. I remember seeing a video posted on here of a XBS with it on... it was loud. I'm just not sure if they will work well with a 12. |

Yea I was gonna buy that one too. I figured that it would work with the 12 I even emailed the guy with the exhaust for sale he said the it only worked on the 9 and my buddy at Glendale buell said the it wouldnt work on the 12. I am not sure why it only works on the 9 and not the 12 I thought they both used the same exhausts I know the D&D and Jardine exhausts work on both 9 and 12's but they are slip ons and use the stock headers. If the stock headers on the 9 and 12 are the same I would think that the force exhaust would work on the 9 or 12 |

primary tubes on the 12 are a larger diameter than the 9 |

I was looking to get the same thing for my 12. Too bad i guess. I'm looking for a pipe that offers more low end to mid range than my race pipe. |

Get the Micron, much more durable system. Your bike will also have more mid range power You will need to get the custom mapping done But, NOTHING sounds as cool as a Force pipe on a Buell! |

Daves Is there still the discount from your old store to badweb members? Is the Micron available from there and if so, what is the price? Thanks, Donatello |

I find the force to be absolutely obnoxious, cheaply built and a waste of money. I like the micron's power but still to loud for me. |
