Do it!!

You will never go wrong with a Drummer, plus the customer service is second to none!

I just bought a used 06 CIty X with a Drummer on it. I thought that would be the first thing I replaced, I don't like loud pipes. As soon as the bike was turned on, I was sold. It is more of a deep sound and not just noise. I think I would put a drummer on any other Buell I got. Worth the money.

Drummer is an excellent muffler mod. Are you after sound, h/p gain or looks???

If you would like to check out a comparison of the different exhausts available for your Buell, one of our sponsors ran a really nice exhaust shootout and dyno runs on both the 12 and the 9. Data and parameter of the runs are linked off the homepage from URL below.

I had a '05 City-X. I put the Buell Race kit on it. The pipe, ECM, K&N and a TPS reset. I like quiet bikes, but never regretted that set up.

i don't know about the DRUMMER, mine cost me $1200.oo .yessee the muffler cost approx $400. the reckless driving ticket cost $400. (93mph in a 65mph). $400. for the lawyers fee .(the judges don't take too kindly to anything from 90mph up in VA.) see i just installed the pipe , my dick got hard(drummer music), so i'm doing top gear "roll-ons" on the interstate past a known speed trap (dick was hard) & got popped by a robotic state trooper (nowhere to run , had to stop). only good thing was johnny law didn't take my picture at 130+. so if you get your DRUMMER try to keep your head on your shoulders.

I have a Drummer on my 12. You can feel more power. It sounds great, albeit loud. I wear ear plugs now and It's not as loud. Also can't hear the neighbors b%^hing with the ear plugs on. Also Kevin is a stand up guy.

A great product for the way it delivers smooth power and throttle response, but it is very loud. I had to go back to stock after my ears rang after riding, even with ear plugs in.

For those of you who feel the Drummer is loud, I don't know what to tell ya? Mine is not overly loud, its right in the middle. Unless not wearing ear plugs during live fires as a grunt tuned down my hearing.

I'd say stay with stock if the Drummer is too loud. It only gets louder from there.

My Drummer seemed quiter when I first recieved it from Kevin.

It now has over 50,000 miles on it, and it is definetly louder.

I understand Kevin can do a repack.

Maybe some of you that have the loud ones need to contact Kevin and arrange for him to freshen it up.

My Drummer isn't that loud at all. Louder than stock for sure, but it's not obscene.
