Be warned though, even though the supertrapp system is quieter, it truly sounds like **** and the stainless little bolts used to bolt all the discs on usually seize or cross thread.
Pure junk and I have refused to touch their stuff ever again.

My system had a package of antiseize in copper to use on the disc bolts. I never had a problem with mine.

Do you know if the Fuel Moto version suffers the same hardware issues?
(I don't think it's actually a Supertrapp but it's very similar)
I'll comment since I've used both systems and still use the FM E-series. The E is built heavier and the elliptical diffuser discs are similar in concept to the Trapp but have a larger surface area and different contour than the Trapp. The sound is a bit richer to my ear. It doesn't have the "pfft pfft" sound that some complain the Trapp has. The hardware is similar and you have to be religious about applying copper anti-seize to the screws EVERY time you have them out. I never had an issue with the screws on either system doing it that way.
I did however have other quality issues with the Trapp. At the front of the muffler where the inlet tube is welded to the muffler body the weld cracked and the muffler body separated from the tube. This happened 2 weeks after the 1 yr. warranty expired. Even with pics showing the rust in the crack, Supertrapp refused to offer anything other than a full retail + shipping replacement. That experience led me away from their product.
I am putting hard bags on my heritage so I gotta change my pipes. I want to go with a 2 into 1 exhaust but cant hardly stand the noise any more. Kind of strange after riding loud bikes all my life I have lost most of my hearing. Now loud pipes really bother me. Who makes the quietest 2 into 1 pipes?
The SuperTrapp systems that use our "patented" round disc technology is about the quietest systems available today.
Here is one of our latest 2:1 offerings that is a bit different looking than our 2: SuperMeg but is just as quiet. http://supertrapp.com/product_sectio...emID=828-74680
I'm running the Freedom Performance American Outlaw pipe, quite happy with the sound. I ride in both a beanie lid and full face Simpson helmet and the sound of the exhaust is perfect to me with the standard baffle. They make a quiet baffle but I haven't heard what kind of difference it makes. Definitely a much nicer sounding pipe than the Vance and hines side shots I was running before.
