RE: Exhaust Systems

["Minor, Bob" <Bminor@xxxxxxxx>]

Actually I didn't mind it at speed and I loved how it sounded at the upper RPM's.  My problem was the lower RPM resonance and  persistent backfiring that developed after a few thousand miles of use.  I guess the back pressure must decrease after the fiberglass burns in.  Anyway, quiet seems pretty good right now.

Bob - I got $280.00 (+$25 for shipping) on Ebay for the Two Bros. system -
if memory serves I originally paid about $410.00 for it directly from Two
Brothers. I see the responses that say to use the 'S' connector tube and
mate it with the VFR cannister - which sounds like a good idea, but that
sure makes it an awfully expensive connector tube. Since you've been a
customer of Two Brothers, I'd suggest emailing them asking for a
replacement connector, which you could then use for the VFR can, while
selling your complete system on Ebay.

All said and done, I like the bike in stealth mode a whole lot better - the
Two Brothers would have driven me crazy on a long ride.
