Had to sell the bike unfortunately. In the end i'd say the pipes were a bit too loud for my taste. But that's just me getting old.

Here is the final set up.

Man I miss this bike.

​​​​That exhaust system looks the **** on the bike,
Im sorry that you had to sell it.
You mentioned that jigs were made to make the exhaust fit on the '16 48, but I emailed Firebrand last week and was told that it wouldn't fit my '17 48. Did you get something to make it fit from somewhere other than Firebrand? If so, I'd love to know where because I have been jonesing bad for these pipes. Also, how hot would that front header be near your leg on long rides?
