I installed the Drummer Carbon Fiber on my Ss on Saturday. The install was a snap. I've got maybe 75 miles on it so far and I have a few initial impressions. First off, the thing is incredibly light, like around 5 pounds. It seems unreal when you hold it. Second, the build quality is perfect as you would expect from someone as anal as Kevin. Third, the sound is very similar to the SS, but a bit more mellow. Fourth, the power seems the same as the SS. And finally, you can hold your hand on the carbon shell after a hot run and it's maybe 125 degrees.

I've installed my wideband O2 sensor in the headpipe's bung and will start some on the road A/F testing soon.

That does look svelte. It looks great, and even with full bodywork it might be worth it, kind of the "easter egg" effect . . .

that cf drummer looks VERY VERY SWEEEET! top quality as one would expect from kevin. i would almost buy one but it seems that cf on the underside of a buell would be playing w/ fire. one wrong speed bump and wouldn't it break/shatter? to expensive to do that. maybe if i lived where i didn't have to worry about potholes/speedbumps.
