I went with the power vision and Bassani 1d5250 in black. I was mainly concerned over ground clearance, and I keep reading about the 2 Bros having endcap issues. I also like having full heat shields.
It's a little louder than I prefer, but not bad really. I like the sound.

I heard of the issues with the ends coming loose also. I used Rocksett on the screws and have had absolutely zero issues with mine. It's cheap for peace of mind.

I have a gap between the bottom header pipe and muffler and a small leak. It was a big gap when I first got it. I had them send me a new mounting bracket and Redrilled the holes and took most of the gap out. But still some there. Planning on trying some sealant. May just go with a Bassani, but I've got aftermarket 02 sensors and wrap into this pipe already. Bassani was my first choice, but they were back ordered. Being a crotch rocket guy, knew 2 bros is good stuff, figured I'd give em a shot.

Another vote for the road rage 3 here. Good sound and love the golden look after some heat cycles. It performed well with the other engine work I had done (cams, high comp pistons and mild head work). Only real downside is since it doesn't have full heat shields you have to be aware of leg positioning, I've burnt a couple holes in jeans down at the ankle.

Anyone know of any place that has some clear cut dyno charts?
This is the best I've found: https://www.fuelmotousa.com/p-33193-....html#rushmore
From what I'm coming across there isn't too much difference in the numbers you get, more where the power comes on.

I just removed my RR3 and put a Pro Pipe on mine. The RR3 was too loud for me and to top it off, I set my pant leg on fire. I loved the look, but the pipe just wasn't what I was looking for.

How do you like the ProPipe? That's one I'm looking to hear as well.
After hearing the TBR online it's on my short list to hear in person. The videos seem to make me think it will have a nice low rumble to it.

It's noticeably quieter with a low rumble. At cruise speeds it's a low pitched hum, but barks like a top fuel dragster when you crack the throttle. The RR3 had a higher pitched growl to it that I didn't really get into. It was more noticeable on decel. There was no pop or anything, but a high, fast burble.
Note that I have haven't had the chance to put too many miles on the Pro Pipe. The weather went to hell right when I swapped her out.

That's good to know. Think we talked a little while back as you're not too far from me. Been a LONG winter this year.
Is the low hum like a droning sound or just something you don't really notice?
