It backfires like a mofo too... The pipe is SHORT. it connects directly to the headers, it goes headers, maybe about 2 inches of stainless, then the muffler which is about 14" long. Thats it. Comes out near the swingarm... this has done WONDERS as far as center of gravity and handling goes... it feels more stable and is easier to throw around (then again I had almost no gas in the tank when i test rode it ) but I like to think its a bit more nimble... however, i was taking my sister for a spin to the bank today, going on an exit ramp, leaned over too far and scraped it. I was furious... Because I thought the exhaust was too low and I wouldnt be able to take turns like i like to... however upon closer inspection turns out my rear suspension is just really soft... that, and I had a passenger which obviously pushes the rear end down a lot. So I'm going to harden up the shocks... well, i'm going to read up on hardening the shocks (spiffyaid PM'ed) and then see...
