Got a little $ that I can spend on the Uly. If I opt for a muffler, these are my options. Drummer $400+muffler(I don't want to cut my brand new muffler 'til I'm sure I like it) Spec Ops $250+muffler Jardine $250-400ish(depending on muffler) I'm not looking for more performance. If I get more, thats OK. I wouldn't mind getting a smoother transition throughout the RPM range and I don't want a loud harley sound. Plug-n-play is also a good thing. This, for me at least, would be more about a good sound to match the grunt of this beast. |

Not sure I'll tell you anything you don't already know, but I'll say that I LOVE my Drummer. I had American Sport Bike remap my ECM, so I'm personally not sure about plug-n-play (without modifying the ECM), although others more knowledgeable than myself will attest to it being just fine. Yes, it's louder, smoother, and IMHO worth the money. Kevin makes a high quality product. The only thing I've noticed is a bit more decel popping when the engine is cold. Just my 2 cents. |

I noticed that the Spec Ops still uses the valve and the Drummer doesn't. Does this make a difference? |

Chris, have you read the exhaust shootout? If not go to American Sport Bike and you can find it for download. True the Spec Ops retains the stock valve. I don't have one, but I would assume the biggest difference is not having to modify/disconnect the servo thus no check engine light. |

Go with the econo drummer (if still available) great sound,(just a bit too loud for me and the local constabulary) keeps the exhaust valve and looks better than the stocker. |

It is no longer made by Drummer. From my understanding the Drummer econo was very similar in sound and appearance to the Spec Ops. But I have not owned either one of those two. |
