I still have the 2020. Couldn’t accept 14k trade in value. It’s a fantastic machine, I’ll still ride and enjoy it.

Did you ever get paper on your setup? I don’t like this TBR pipe at all and never having had a TH I’m giving it some serious thought.

Hey man, I know you didn't ask me but I just went to a Thunderheader this winter, previously had V&H slip on's with the competition baffle in them on my stage 1, 103. The TH is a lot quieter than the V&H setup I had and the sound is completely different, much lower, no rasp, quieter at idle also but roars when you get on it. The seat of the pants dyno says I picked up some power though and I love the way they look.

I will say $1299 sounds like a screamin deal considering what I have in the SE kit. It’s a love/hate relationship with the TH. I love the sound and performance but the finish is garbage. They really need a stainless option.
