Yeah, that is what I have heard. I'm going to run it for a while now that I have a tune for it. I hope the low, deep tone is there. I will be interested to see what if any difference there is power/TQ wise between the e-series collector and the R&T. The e-series does very well.

I have a little over 5k miles on this exhaust now....

Just yesterday I put about 150 miles of mostly freeway cruising on it..... I've been riding my other bikes most recently, so when I rode the bagger yesterday, I noticed what a nice tone it had at idle and cruise... sounded really good. It still lets you know it's there, under load or open throttle, but it has totally lost that initial raspy sound it had when new...

If I wasn't SOOOO happy with my OTHER FM exhaust, I'd be all over this one.

I wonder why that is? Is the baffle fiberglass wrapped. You would think it would get louder over time?
Back in the day the Kerker 4 into 1 on my old KZ's would get louder.

I notice when I mow the lawn with my black sneakers on the job gets done faster. Still looking forward to your review and thoughts. Be sure to update after you get a thousand miles on it
