Why does it say, "not intended for road use," right above A picture of it installed on a road bike? Implying it's just for the track?

Because technically, in almost every state in the U.S., it is against the law to make any modification to your vehicle's factory exhaust system. So any aftermarket muffler is illegal and they have to put that to protect themselves in case someone were to be ticketed for using their product.

Anyway, It looks nice. And great price.

Edit: If you have an OEM muffler, go read the little in-laid writing on it.

Not my particular taste because I don't care for stainless (I'm a carbon guy) but the price is great

I wonder what the sound is like

For a few dollars less, you can always go with the titanium danmoto. The internals are exactly the same as their carbon slip on, and the JISU slip on. Just a different shell. I have the carbon fiber one. And it sounds AMAZING. Pretty loud but not enough to get you in trouble. That may be another option for you.

Is this what you have??

I'm looking for something that won't kill my wallet but will make my bike a bit louder.

Yepp that's the one. But its much much cheaper directly from dan moto. So I would definitely get it from them.

It really sounds great. Very deep.

NICE! Yea, that does sound good. I read somewhere that you have to drill a hole for the 02 sensor or something along those lines. Did you have to do that or just put it on and you were good?

Nope. Just unbolt the old can and slip this one on. The only modification that had to be made was the hole in the strap that holds it to the passenger peg had to be drilled out slightly to fit the bolt on the bike. But other than that it was truly bolt on and go.

Alright well I got it. Cost around $120... Shipping was either $40 or $80... Not sure why, but o well. It's mine now!

NDspd · November 27th, 2011, 07:17 AM

Wow an $80 exhaust slip-on, how does this compare to other ones? Quality, sound, durability, easy to install???

Awesome! Just a little tip in advance, install the little coupler or "mid-pipe" as they call it before you slip it onto the can. Then, with the coupler on the bike, get the can positioned just the way you like it and mark it with a sharpie. Then pull both pieces off the bike, assemble them and reinstall. The reason for this is because these two pieces simply slip together it is an extremely tight fit. And if the exhaust tip is pointed the wrong way when you are done, It is a massive pain in the ass to separate the two pieces. Ask me how I know....

Ease of install: I give it about an 8 out of 10 simply because of what I stated above and because the strap that it comes with has to be drilled out slightly.

Durability: I just got back from over a 1000 mile trip with my bike and this exhaust and it still looks brand new. It shines nicely when washed as well.

Sound: A good friend of mine has a two bros slip on that he paid well over $400 for and as soon a he heard and saw this, he sold his two bros and bought this exhaust. Its about the same volume as the two bros but its much deeper. that's the only side-by-side comparison I have.

Quality: All parts a very well made, all the welds are absolutely perfect. The finish over the carbon fiber is really nice.

Oh yeah, and in case you were curious, the stock muffler weighs a little over 17 pounds. this one weighs 1.5.

That's all good news to me man, thanks for the help. I guess I have to save up and get this one.

Plus now that I think about it, I can get my saddle bags to finally fit, since the stock exhaust was too long.

Thanks again!!!
