Default Jekill and Hyde Exhaust

Hey Guys,

Been looking for an exhaust system for 2018 Fat Bob.
Noticed a Jekill and Hyde Exhaust systems with slip ons.
From what I can see, this is the only company that replicates the factory design.
Has anyone here tried their systems before?
Are they well engineered?
Aesthetically they are perfect (for me) but do they offer performance comparable to the regular market players?
Here is the link

I have seen these on their bikes during a bike show and they look very well made and easthically pleasing too.

ThCy work with a remote operated wireless valve that diverts exhaust flow through the damper section or through the undampened section. Undampened they give a nice deep ruumble, while when the valve is closed the noise level drops sigificantly.

They are VERY VERY expensive though, costs run here between 2,300 to 3,000Eur EXCLUDING mountning/installation

No wonder they are not that "popular"
3,000 Eur is a huge investment. I like the look of the shotgun exhaust but couldn't care less for their valve actuation system and "quiet" mode.
I wonder if anyone makes a simple 2 in 1 in 2 exhaust with slip on as per factory spec without the cat converters built in?

If a harley dealership claims my quiet baffles damaged my engine, imagine what they will do to you if you use the quiet mode of this exhaust?

Absolutely nothing....

Your damage IIRC was due to racing...
