I installed a Micron on an 03 XB9S. I am the least mechanically inclined person I know (SERIOUSLY), and I was able to do it. Take your time and read up on it a little bit. There are some threads on this site about it, do a search. I think it looks great on my bike. Best to do an open airbox mod/K & N filter or something similar, and you will also need an ECM remap, or you will run very lean. Good luck!

The change out is not that bad at all me and my buddy did it with minimal tools in abotu 2 hours. Just remember patiene is a virtue.

Be ready for some tuning, the bike will not run worth a shit unless you map it with that exhaust.

I have two micron headers in stock...one new one, silver ceramic coated, and the other one, slightly used but in excellent condition (core return on our coating program). Not cheap, but the price is the same as it was when they were available from Micron, I haven't jacked them up. The headers alone are $425, coated adds $169.

Al, great to know if I go the replacement route. Still figuring out details with insurance.
