Not sure what the copies sound like, but I agree the CFR's have a sound of their own that I have always liked

I've never heard anything quite like it. Usually to get loud you get that hollow sound. All rpms sound good.

for some reason, 5.0 mustang comes to mind. That deep even burble.

So where can I get a pair and how much they goin for? Once they are on the bike do they look good?

They Look excellent !! Although the finished welds are not that good on the knock offs. They have been raising the price and they have one pair go to auction about 1 every 2 weeks? Maybe more as they said they do not have that many any more ?Range from $200 to $300 . There sound is EXCELLENT!

I now agree with Jamie...100%! I also I wish I would have never made such a big deal about thees knock offs on here when they were introduced to me.

CFRs are not $1000...the ones that Ness sells (that are modified) are $1000. The new CFRs I was told will be right in line with the current price.

Bryan you did not make a big thing about the knock-offs, it was the CFR sound that alot had heard and liked that makes them seem good. I have to tell you I would have waited for your old pipes because I really do like the Pro-Tour Better then the knock-offs, I was pressed for time and I also thought my bike was SOLD ! Which is another story altogether ! If I do catch them on a deal again I may just get them ? I see you have not worked out that new one's yet? I wish you much luck and hope you get it soon

You do what do what you have to do. But, I do feel that more people are buying them after I posted about them.

I've been working with Cary and no, I haven't got my new pipes yet and I still haven't sold my Pro Touring pipes either. I have to hold on to them until I get things worked out with the CFRs.
