Anyone have any experience with CFR slip on mufflers? Cary Faas Racing don't seem to have a customer service system in place. Just checking to see if anyone has had Dyno experience with them
Thanks

I bought a used pair from a guy who felt they were too loud. If you have a newer model with the cat in the head pipes, most would love their sound. However, if no cat, be aware these mufflers ( at least the pair I had) were straight thru Megaphones with about 1/4" of cloth than ran the lenght of the muffler body. They are very loud. I had tru dual head pipes on my bike and, although they sound like straight pipes on steriods, on my bike, for me, they were Too loud. On my bike my lower rpm's became softer, I never felt the upper mid range surge that drag pipes provide on some bikes. Agian for me, they were just too loud.
I had no trouble selling mine on E bay
Botton line, imo, if you like loud, they do sound good.
