Has anyone installed an aftermarket pipe who might be willing to part with their stock (49 state, cat-free) muffler?

For a reasonable price and shipping?

i've got a saron coming from trojan, when it gets here, if you haven't found one let me know.

Zack3g, what made you decide on the saron over the D&D?

I will also have a muffler availible soon, when I decide which one to go with.

i like the way the saron sounds. D&D, at least the one i heard, sounds more like an open pipe than an exhaust. i don't really like that.

I would be interested in a stock take-off as well. Someone drop me an email when you are ready to sell.

Zack3g, where did you order the saron from? how much did you pay.

Matt (Trojan) offers the Saron. Exchange rate is ~$1,200 not counting shipping.

We have been told two weeks by the manufacturer, so we hope they are spot on.

I do like the way the saron stays with the underbelly concept. Is it legal for street use in the US?

Matt (Madxcat)...have to be careful since there are now 2 folks named "Matt" on here...the price of the Saron is ~double that of the D&D. However, take a look at the HP, Torque & AFV dyno sheets of both & compare the curves. IMO, the Saron is the better buy for the $$$. Plus, you won't lose any lean angle with the Saron.

Someone please get Odie a stock pipe ASAP so he can figure out how to make us ALL sweet new pipes!

Hi Cutty72,

I'd be happy to play "guinea pig" for Odie later this fall after the riding season is up here in beautiful Washington state. I think he'd do a great job on this.....

I feel the stock pipe is still the best design for this bike I've seen yet, and would be glad to see it re-baffled and the spouts aimed outward off of the rear brake rotor.

Take care and stay safe, Tracy

Yeah, Odie, I'll get with you before I put Vader up for the winter. If you don't have a stock pipe, I'll send you mine to play with.
