Hi guys. Maybe you can help me out. I remember seeing a bike on here that had an exhaust that I really liked. It didn’t look like the normal exhausts with a big can under the bike. It was sleeker like the headers just smoothed out and bulged at the end, with the exhaust exit out the end of the bulge. I can’t remember whose bike it was. I think it may have been painted green with a nice frame polish. But I could be mistaken. If you can help me figure out what exhaust it was and who sells it I would be very grateful.

I bet you are talking about Misato's bike. It is sweet. I have an older picture of it. I personally think it is getting a little too much chrome these days, but to each his own. This is one of my favorite pictures of it.

Fill out your profile???

I don't know if you have a 12 or 9...

I have a 12 w/ Force header/muffler (or should I say "muffler"... It doesn't muffle a damn thing...) and a tuned PCIII. The power from 2K-3K is HORRIBLE compared to stock or the Drummer (the only two other pipes I've personally tested/tuned etc...

The Force beats the Drummer (I used the Force header with both mufflers) from 3K to about 4700 but gets MUDERED by the Drummer on the bottom and just kind of slain on the top. The Force (again, using the force header with both mufflers) beats the Drummer over only 1500 RPM in the middle.

However... While the Drummer does indeed sounds nice... the Force is a LOT louder than any other solution (except maybe the Becin) and IMO sounds EXTREMELY mean.

It's not worth the power loss in the low end though, so I have swapped back over to the Drummer.

If you click on the profile you wish to view and then delete MODERATOR from the address you can view the 'real' one.

Hold off on the profile thing. The old ones will be back up and running soon. I've been too busy to try the fix. Will give it a go tonight late when site traffic dies down.
