I've done a search and can't find one. Anyone know where I can find one? or does anyone have one to email? I'd really like to hear a sound clip of one before I go and drop $399.

I don't have a sound clip but I do really like the sound that this pipe pumps out. It's not the loud crackle-ear popping sound. More like a nice loud low rumble. It is still pretty loud but not high pitched like some.

I would also love to hear this pipe! I think it looks great in the Black with 2 Chrome/SS outlets. I'm not big onto adding a lot of flashy stuffy to my bike, but the outlets look cool, and I like the look of the black pipe.

I've only heard 2 Buells with pipes, but they were going the other direction and I didn't catch what pipes they had on 'em. Both of the bikes sounded great though!

I have had a Latus pipe since it was first introduced. I second the comments of 12bolt; also fit and finish were very good.

Be advised that if you don't already wear earplugs (I did), you will definitely START wearing them after fitting the Latus (or probably most any aftermarket exhaust). It's that mid-bike exhaust exit location...

I have heard 12bolt's bike and it is just the right tone. I am sold.

I've got the Latus also. No sound clip, but I agree with everyone here. It sounds great, and I think it feels like a bit more power over my old Buell race can on my 9R. The tips look nice sticking out just a little bit.

Jerseyguy and I did an informal D&D vs. Drummer (old style) sound test last week at a local bike night.

Similar volume. The D&D was a little louder, a little more raspy. The Drummer was a little more mellow.

Drag race results to follow....

Whats the Drag race gonna prove...That one rider is faster then the other or one pipe is better then the other...I don't understand.

I have the Latus and love it! No sound clip. Sound is great and seems to be a performance increase.

Do not hesitate to purchase one.
