I also completely agree that this exhaust is not good looking.

With the Pan Am I'm not really looking for anything that is either just for looks or more power (its got enough). I like looking at the aftermarket pipes but they are not a priority. But, when somebody sells a mid-pipe that replaces the muffler box -- sign me up!

Harley do already. The SE pipe comes with a replacement mid pipe that replaces the big black muffler box.

That's fair, but no one buys a Madstad for esthetics.

V&H should be ashamed to advertise that thing.

:-) Nobody really buys an adventure bike for aesthetics either.

We should have a competition to see what the ugliest yet most practical thing we can hang from our bikes is....

Call me crazy, but I think the PA is the best of the lot looks-wise.

We should be getting these in after the weekend.
