First time I've ever heard the CFR's are the best performers, or even good performers for that matter. Word is that the baffles are too big, and you will lose low end torque, and several people have mentioned their bikes are too hard to tune with these pipes.

I've read a lot of exhaust threads, and NOBODY that I remember was happy with their performance.

yea very good quailty well built and the best sound i ever heard but as far as performance they dont have it. i have had mine for at least 7 to 8 months. just got back from laughlin and prior to that we went to texas 3800 miles round trip and they did not perform very well. but like i said they a very good quality muffler sound is in a class of its own.
Rick.
ps if u wanna buy mine $375.00 plus shipping.

I went with RC Components Eclipse 4", very nice look and definitely a nice deep tone. Now if I could just find an 09 header...

I had Thunderheaders on my 2008 and loved them. I put D&Ds on my 2011 and love them too. If I had to do it again I would probably go back to TH.

in the past i've used several sets of rinehart slip ons with great results. now i'm using a v&h 2 into 1 pro pipe, but the rineharts served me quite well, with great sound and looks.
