I'm sure I'm behind the power curve on what's been happening lately with aftermarket stuff for my XB as I've been in the desert for the past year.... but.. where people having issues with the nallin signature exhaust? What about the Streetfighter exhaust kit from FORCE? Any issues there? How does everyone feel they'd compare to the drummer or D&D installed on a XB12? Price is not the issue here. I'm in the market for something NOW. : ) thanks a bunch. Larry

Read the Nallin Signature Exhaust Redesign thread. The Force and Nallin pipe are the exact same thing. If you were willing to wait I would say wait until the verdict comes back in on the redesign on this pipe. I enjoyed the hell out of mine and was only getting turned off recently due to a lack of customer support and service. Ask Misato about his ordeal with them he definitely got it WAY worse than I did. There are a ton of Drummer fans on this site mainly due to Buckinfubba, as he helped create those. I haven't heard all that much on the D&D power wise. I can tell you this we installed one and it definitely doesn't sound bad. Also there have been a couple of posts here about a Becin(sp?) exhaust system that seems interesting and I would like to learn more about.

Hope this helps

I don't think there are lots of fans of drummer because of me being here, hell I can't even get laid by a hooker, there are fans here because the pipe works, it don't break, its affordable, it sounds good, and its customer service dept. is top notch, ooops thats me I am being biased.

I have already spoke with larry and given him the dynos and such, he'll make his own decision I am sure.

Not trying to shake it up or anything, but trust me ask any of them, they don't like the pipe because of me being here.

There are probably 5 or 6 pipes/exhaust systems you can get now for your XB.

If you asked people from this site what pipe they liked the best, i think most would say the Drummer.

Bubba I was saying there are so many fans of them here because of you. I have to wonder if you were not a member how many people would have the Drummer. I'm not saying the pipe is bad or anything and I was seriously 2 steps from calling you for one when Force finally called me back. I know that what you are creating and designing as far as the Drummer goes is top notch. I've been pimping these things to other friends of mine who own XBs and on other sites because I hear nothing but good about them. I was hoping you wouldn't take offense to my comment but it looks like I worded it wrong. I didn't mean anything by it I think what you guys have done is awesome and shows a real commitment to the brand. I really wish there were more people like you out there...or at least around my area.

nah no offense taken, just being my ol gloomy self today and wanted to my 1 cent in. sorry if I sounded crass, ain't been sleepy well lately, and I am to old not to get good sleep numbers.

I appreciate all the pimpin you are doing.

well heres the thing tho. I ain't sure why all the companys that make stuff for buells don't have atleast one person in the know on this board and other buell boards, hell it would make perfect sense to be here to answer questions of the product and such, so that the information doesn't get so misconscrewed.

but then again that's just my opinon, and just ask them up in the towers....I am the court jester...and should not be trusted.

thanks agin gator and there was no offense taken and I hope I didn't shake it up too much

I've only had one force product (intake system for my M2, which worked as advertised), but given the support that a number of customers and at least oone retailer hasn't received from the company, I seriously doubt if I'd buy anything more complex than a t-shirt from them . . . their definition of "customer support" and mine are too far apart for me to send any more money their way

Bubba,
I agree there should be more people on these boards willing to talk about and answer questions about their product. I think it would probably lead to increased sales for them. Believe me I understand the whole court jester thing. That's what I am around here. A typical conversation about motorcycles that ends up on the subject of Buells usually ends up with me getting insulted(either the bike, or me, or me and my bike) and me getting all indignant trying to defend my choice of motorcycle. Like I said you guys do something that not a whole lot of people would be willing to do and I respect that a whole lot.

You da man,
BG

Gator, you don't have to defend a damn thing. Ride and enjoy, if the other "bikers" expect you to defend your choice they just don't get it, and probably never will.

Lance, I have nothing to add about the Force or any other pipe as I have the Buell rusted race pipe.
I chimed in to say Welcome Home, and Thank You!!!

Thanks to all... and you're welcome glitch, it's great to be back. That place is the wild damn west man. Though flying literally down some of the streets of Fallujah quelled most of my thrill issues.. ha! Check out how sick I am here... I'm flying around looking for bad guys, generally identified by the tracer fire and I'd see a motorcycle (lots of'em out there).. so I start following it to see what they're riding!! Didn't see any Buells though (big suprise). Some nice roads snaking along parts of the Euphrates river though. keep it real!

HEY LANCE!

What do you fly? It can't be an Apache, Gays don't ride Buells!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!

I just got to Iraq a couple months ago, and tonight in zone 21 I did EXACTLY the same thing- followed a guy because I could see his was a sporty bike through my NVG's.

I'm 1-7 Cav Garryowen, OH-58D's. My recommendation is straight pipes! Works for me! Check my profile pic.

Hey Bigsherm9r,

I was a 67S (OH-58DI mechanic) for 6 yrs in the Army...2/17th Air Cav 101st Airborne in Ft Campbell, KY. I managed to be deployed to Bosnia, Haiti, Somalia, Kuwait, and Germany to name a few. I have two older brothers that are Navy Seals (I have no idea where they are right now....Shhhhhhh). I'm always thinking about you guys over there. Once you're in the military, you're ALWAYS in the military!! Be safe and watch your flanks!

Scott... I'm a KW pilot as well dude! 1-82avn Bragg. I was over there the first three months this thing kicked off... back for 3 months.... then back over for about 11 months. First time over we did our fighting (actually pulling the trigger in anger) in ah samahwa. This last time was on the doorstep of Fallujah. I agree about Apache though.. those fags are still trying to develop the concept of running fire. Still can't figure out why we got rid of Cobras. Speaking of motorcycle heresy here though (don't get mad) I took out a dude on a bike (honda I think) that was fleeing an area with a couple AK47's and an odd looking "tube" all slung over his back. Sorry heh..heh.... Hey, sweet bike on your profile though scott! Wouldn't it be great to ride out there once? The cops just don't seem to have the motivation to chase ya very long! ( I know... what cops).
