Get it. You will be glad you did. Great sound that draws positive comments from other enthusiasts. Fit is exactly the same as stock and was easy to change. The finish is good and it is the best bang for the buck. Go for it and don't look back.

i like mine on the ulysses. very deep sound and a little more "pop" than a drummer. i love seeing the reaction of people when you approach and they expect to see a harley.

I think he was asking about opinions on the Special OPS. Maybe I'm blind, but he doesn't seem to mention the "Sardine can" anywhere!

I've been running a Spec Ops pipe for 2 years now. Even guys with Microns and Force pipes ask what I have. It sounds like no other. Low, deep, raw, that's how I would describe it. The "pop" is kinda nice in heavy traffic for getting the attention of cellphone occupied drivers! Power delivery isn't much different than a Drummer, so it's more of a question of which personality suits you. Go with what you like.

I was happy with mine. A touch on the loud side for me but I'm an old fart.

I've had my ops on for 2 weeks and love it . nice power band still great deep rumble and nothings better than sitting at a light with a cager on the phone next to you and just keep rolling the throttle a little and they won't hear a word on the phone.

best bang for your buck. i actually prefer the special ops pipe with stock airfilter and stock ecm over the complete race kit(buells race pipe, ecm, airfilter).

Absolutely love mine and if you decide to go with one of Oddie's pipes I highly recommend spending the extra $75 and get the pipe Jet-Hot coated, still end up cheaper then any other pipe out there even with the ceramic coating

I love my spec ops pipe!
Sound - As has been said, low and throaty, just like a v-twin outa'. I have been told that at high rpms, it sounds a bit ducati-ish to the riders behind me.
Fit - well, it is the stock can, so it fits perfectly.
Finish - Paint is great, it looks like the Jet-Hot coat is awesome!

And, Odie is a great guy to do bidness with.}

Ive got a Spec OPS pipe... its just an awesome bargain! I was considering the drummer, but didnt have the dough to dish out... Odie's pipe is everything that I wanted! But all I wanted was the harley sound! I GOT IT!

The only regret I have is not spending the extra money and geting the Jet-Hot... it looks bad ass

Davy_Boy - so did you sell the pipe? I e-mailed Odie about getting one. If your still going to sell it, and Lentuk decides to pass let me know.
