Quite expensive, but imho this is the best looking exhaust yet for the CB!
Closest thing yet to a Kerker.
Damn! With this exhaust and a silver tank I would be happy forever!
....and broker than I am now.

OH MY! Saddest thing is, that thing equals 2.5 of my house payments.

Wow, that's a pretty nice looking piece!

Lol that's a pretty cheap house payment ole'

Hey inline...life is too short not to be happy

Uh.. It's only money

Umm..you can 't take it with you

Hmm..its better to beg forgiveness than to ask permission

Ok..that's all I got.

$1400.00!? On a $10K bike?
I drop cash on toys all the time but the cost of exhaust systems for these bikes if insane.

$700 on a Staintune was my limit. I reckon I get $1400 worth of pleasure out of it though

It is a work of art however:

Fine looking system and obviously a lot of attention to detail in it's manufacture. Expensive for sure.

Yea, it's gorgeous, Yea I can't even think of affording it.

OK, I'll show my ignorance of the springs with a top 10 list:

10. They hold the pipes together
9. They are tuned to the resonate frequency of each cylinder
8. They cushion the blow when a body part comes in contact with the pipes
7. They are safety connectors in case the pipes come loose.
6. They rattle on the pipe generating a cool sound
5. They are purely cosmetic
4. They are mini heat exchangers
3. As the bike moves through the air mass, the coiled spring rifles the air flow, increasing the coefficient of drag while focusing the resultant vortex aft of the vehicle for a net increase in mpg
2. They hold your map
1. They were left over from another production run

Love it, Would prefer chrome, though, just my taste. I will have to wait a couple of years and perhaps stumble across a second hand set.
