We did not yet put black mufflers into production, we are going to wait and see what the demand is for them.

A suggestion I have is to do a before and after, or have a stock bike nearby to compare, so we can hear the difference with the same mic.

We are going to have one of the magazines do a video and there will be a few customers submitting video's as well, so its going to be a little bit. While video's can be helpful to be honest the best way to get a good representation of a muffler's sound is to hear them on a bike firsthand, a video simply does not sound the same and things can get lost in translation, all based on an internet video. This is the specific reason many of the other exhaust brands we carry do not post video's for their products. We'll work on it and when we have a video that's a good representation of the deep, big block sound of these mufflers we'll share it.

I know a lot of people are eager for one of the new 2017 Motors and all of its new Stuff.
I do not like the counter Balancer in the motor at all.
Don't like the newer EPA regulations.
And after doing a 107 Fuelmoto build.
Already got progressive monotubes and 944 UT shocks.
I only see small gains for me to spend the money to go out and buy a brand new bike for what the prices has gone up to on the new Harleys.

Hope after the 1st of the year, the epa regulations change some.

The regulations may not be changed but I suspect EPA enforcement under President Trump may take on a very different look!

Trump needs to make and exectutive order that states that the EPA may not implement any new regulations or rules unless said regulation is approved by a 2/3rds majority of both the house and senate and signed by the president. The EPA is out of control.

I would be making a Bet that the EPA regulations will change.
That in itself is what drove a lot of companies out of the U.S.

Trump has said , he would ease Regulations.
