Want to change the Vance & Hines Pipe back to the original factory exhaust. Will the performance change ? Any problems to expect ? Thanks - Loveslave

I agree 100%. Power loss will be definitely noticeable specially low to mid range.

I also totally agree with the power loss but I really don't think it is a whole lot by itself. Plus with a performance exhaust the power pulses seem much more abrupt that the whole bike vibrates more. Not to mention the noise factor. My stock M2L is smoother than the other M2's I have had with the aftermarket exhaust's. Also my throttle hand is more comfortable. I guess I have all the power I need with it staying stock.
