LOL Not sure if I'm keeping them...I'll check them out and see what I think. You never know, they might be debadged CFRs and if they are...great. If not, I'll be getting rid of them.

I'm sorry, and I know nobody cares (and shouldn't), but I just am not impressed with the way these CFR's sound.....BUT I've only heard them through Youtube... I also think Fatcats sound like ****. Both of these have that weird underwater bloob-bloob boom-can sound that reminds me of some kid running straight pipes on an old six-cylinder pickup truck. To me it's anything BUT a high performance sound.

I sure hope the Frenchman doesn't snivel anymore; that was embarrassing to witness....

I've had the CFRs and heard every available clip on line and none of the clips do them justice (including my clip). I'm not bragging about my bike, but with my build, cam etc., those CFRs really come alive. And, I've had them with a few different variations.

It was an iPhone recording:

Are we talking about the knock offs or knockers?

Interesting, I emailed the seller asking what diameter the baffles are and here is his response:
"when we get these in there is a mesh grate obver the end thats welded in place so I cant measure it it is stainless steel mesh though. "

CFRs don't have a mesh grate, do they? If so it sounds like the internals may be different.
