I received my CFR's yesterday and installing them today. I made the decision to buy the real CFR's, after checking reviews. In the long run you get what you pay for, just my thoughts. I am in California and CFR is in Arizona and got them in 2 days, awesome customer service. I am impressed with the craftsmanship, chrome, etc. I will take pics later and post.

I've had 2 pairs or the knock-off CFR's. On my 07 with true duals and my 09 with true duals. Both have had no issues. This second set has a better chrome job. I won't have anything else for now. When you stand behind the bike you can feel the deepness that is lost in the vids.

They can be LOUD when full boogie is happening or tame if you're ***** footin it.

I wouldn't even bother without doing true duals. It makes these come alive.
This is my 07. I'll get a vid of my 09 with stock header and CFR's Vs True duals and CFR's.

Alrighty, I hope you guys appreciate my quick mechanics skills...lol
This is the 09 with the stock header and knock-offs.


Same 09 with True Duals and knock-offs and heavy breather. Cold idle. It's much louder in person. Warm idle/rev.



09 cold idle

I think the most interesting thing about them is the different type of sounds they make.

I am glad they are working for you. The 2 guys I know that have them are not happy with them .They sounded good at 1st we could n't tell the difference between the knock offs and real CFR's, but in about month they blew out and sound louder and way different. Maybe they got some bad ones.They ordered them at same time.

This is a pic of mine on the 2011 Cop Glide. 2200 miles and I'm sorry there is nothing in there to blow out.

I beg to disagree there is white fiberglass packed between the muffler body and the perforated baffle. It can be seen in your photo. On my bike It starts to burn or blow out near the header first then slowly disappears as time goes by. The tone of the exhaust changed it became more high pitched sounded kind of tinny. The right side went faster. I replaced it sounds good again.
