Default Bub7's gone, Stock is Back on.

Spent about 6 hours on the SG with the Bub 7's yesterday. Just couldn't take all the noise. Went back to stock exhaust today. Much more pleasant and can hear the radio much better. Wife is happy also. Just can't take all the noise anymore. I'll let all you guys do the loud exhaust macho thing. I'm more about comfort then I am stylin'.

Get the Supertrapp SE's from Fuel Moto. BEST sounding/performing/looking slip-ons bar none. 3db louder than stock and bark when the wick is twisted.

Thanks John,
It does get a lot of attention at shows. Fun to watch peoples face when they first spot the 502 and then the supercharger.....

Hanging on them for a few weeks. Got one other PM with someone interested. If I decide to sell I'll give him first shot and then you if you would like.

I will have already bought something in a few weeks. Patience might be a virtue...but it isn't one of mine.

You must have sensitive ears...

I had a set on my RK and did not find them that loud.

I took them off and replaced them with Monster Ovals for the look.. The sound is similar.

If anyone wants to offer me something for the Bubs i will ship them for free.

did you put the true duals on or slip-ons??
if you have true dual set up you can order their quiet baffles.....makes a big difference.
they only have the quiet baffles for the true dual set up
