Thanks to Odie, I got my Special OPS Pipe 2 weeks ago.

and let me tell you : that's a great pipe !!!!!

If you ride a XB12 and want to keep the Valve...get the Special OPS.... no loss of Torque and great power...

The pipe look great with the 2 outlet and fit great...

the Sound tone is Loud and low tone...very bad a$$... love it !!!

So anyway I just wanted to share my experience with the Special OPS pipe

Regis

PS : Unfortunately I live in a veeeeeeery calm area, and my neighbors does not share the same passion for loud bikes...So I will have to go back to stock or Move somewhere else ...
and that's too bad because I really Love the special OPS pipe

Keep the pipe and let the neighbors call the cops.

Ok, you guys say you don't lose any power or TQ
from the stock configuration using Odies pipe. But you also don't gain anymore!!!
Five or six hp and Tq make a big difference in the way my bike runs. Maybe Odie can come up with a design to bump up the performance.
When My XB 12 is down 10 hp
it sucks, its not any fun to ride.

Congrat's to Odie for giving sound to the stock 12 pipe, I gave it a try last year, but liked the way my bike runs with the race ecm, so I tossed the extra weight in favor of the Drummer. There IS however, another pipe on the horizon

makes him feel good about himself.

Give me a break guys, I didn’t say anything bad.
If what I said is not true, then prove me wrong.

I just know from playing with different mods
on my bike, a loss of 5 or 6 hp and tq takes the
kick out of the bike and a loss of ten makes the
bike feel very slow. I think if I can get 88 or
better on tq I’ll be happy. Should be there with
the nitrous. I plan on doing some motor work
this winter.

And I don't hide behind bogus screen names
to post my opinions, like someone here.

Combining a Special O.P.S. pipe and being late for work is not necessarily a good idea...I jumped on the interstate this morning and felt the front wheel lift going into third gear. I can definitely admit I'm happy with the performance (and my TFI isn't fully tuned yet).

Just so you guys know, the above name is an impostor.
Please notice Norrisperformance is misspelled.
It was not me.

Now that's pretty darn sneaky. I'll bet there's a big fat L (loser) stamped in the imposter's forehead.

Nice you pointed that out. I didn't even notice. I was wondering if you were Bi-polar or something. Ha!

I put my ops pipe on last sunday. Let it idle a minute and thought how good it sounds. Didn't ride it until monday morning going to work, damn that's loud. I don't think it's that loud, but after riding with the stock pipe for so long... I did wear ear plugs today and it really makes a difference. From a power stand point, it feels like it runs just a bit better (although I haven't revved it out yet, just commuted) than before and I haven't changed my tfi settings either. I might have gone with the drummer but I like the duel outlet and also keeping the valve too... I'm happy...

Oh, and Odie is good to deal with as I'm sure Kevin is too... Thanks, Odie...

Thanks to MOST of you for the kind words. Sort of been out of the net since my wife had major surgery on Monday. Mom-in-law's in town also. Recovery is going ok and it will be about 5 weeks or so.
The pipe speaks for itself. And if that isn't enough, satisfied customers for sure help out! Odie
