Default Magnaflow Gen X (Breakout Specific)
Just got a new exhaust today. Magnaflow Gen X. Has a nice deep rumble to it. Butt dyno says it makes more power than any of the exhausts I have run previously ( V&H BR 2:2, V&H BR 2:1, Ness F Bomb). I was not sure if I would like the flat black on my bike, but the gloss black tips really compliment it well and I do like it a lot.

24V...Very nice. Is it as loud as V&H BR? Also do they make it in chrome?

Yes, and yes.
It is as loud as BR 2:2 but much deeper. It is louder than BR 2:1.

Keep in mind that is just to my ear, so take that as opinion rather than fact.

Where did you get it? I have never seen this pipe by Magnaflow. Sounds like you like it better than the F Bomb.

It should be out next month. I do like it better than the F Bomb. The F Bomb is a nice pipe as well, but I feel like this one fits the bike better.

Boy, that is a nice looking exhaust. Different. If they make that in chrome and a longer version, I'd have to think about it.

Looks good on there. I have Magnaflows on my Slim. They do have a nice rumble.

Are you testing for Magnaflow? Do you have any sound bites?

Yes, and No.
I might make a video later, but no promises.
