First off let me start this by saying that the force company and it's sidewinder exhaust sucks. I had the sidewinder for 6 months when I noticed it had two cracks in the coating. I was informed by jet hot that it was actually cracks in the metal. I called force and they told me I was SOL since it was only covered for 3 months. Jet hot was nice enough to weld the cracks and recoat it for only $25. I finally got my bike back together only a few weeks ago and rode about 100 miles when I noticed the the front down tube was cracked 3/4 of the way around, this time jet hot said it was unfixable by them. If anyone is even thinking about buying from force don't waste your money on this cheaply made system.

O.k enough about that, what I need is any information on a good exhaust system that is reliable, solid, sounds good/loud, and has a good performance record. I saw the bub 2-2 exhaust online, does anyone know anything about this system. I appreciate all the help I can get so I can get back out on the road as soon as possible.

A friend of mine has a Bub on his M2 and he said that it hurt performance.

I constantly rave about WileyCo and will do it again. I cracked my pipe mount (probably partially my fault) and they replaced the entire system with an updated system 100%. i only paid for shipping. This after I didn't even have the reciept or warranty card. I simpley emailed the company and sent them a photo of the broke pipe. it took 2 days for them to ship it from the time I sent the first email. Unless you are running super horsepower that requires a force pipe, I would not hesitate in recomending the WileyCo pipe. Make sure you get one of the new ones with the updated mount though. IF you have any questions please ask.

Wileyco is great! Borlas too, but neither will give you the level of noise you seem to want (especially if you actually liked the way the force sounded before it crapped out) . . . .
