The blinker is well out of the exhaust gas flow, and about 1.7 inches away from the can itself. I will keep an eye on it, don't wasnt to move them if I don't have to.

I put a stick on heat shield on my blinker just for temporary!

What does Muzzy have to say? I would think they ran this thing for hours and hours with the 2009 model to see if anything would happen.

It may be huge now, but I'm psyched about the 2dB reduction comment from the Muzzy rep. Actually we need to get it dyno'd.

I just check out StarCycle-usa.com and they had this for $489. minus shipping and minus quiet core. I also just spoke with Dave Thomas at Muzzys and he could have everything shipped including quite core for $550.

Same price either way. I'm calling Muzzy's right now.

Happy Birthday to me!

Way to go je2000! Your going to enjoy the sound and performance of the bigger lung and don't worry about the signal, when you here your pipe i bet your going to wot it and bleep it all the time sending that hot exhaust 10 feet behind it anyhow.
Happy birthday if you put it on your wifes credit card and Merry Christmas if she misses it on the bill!

Yeah it seems around $500 is the price for a full exhaust for our bike. Whoever sold that to you lost out. I bet he could've gotten a lot more for it. It almost makes you think there's something else wrong. I'm sure it would've turned up by now though. That's a damn good deal.

When the new stuff get installed I'll be sure to contribute some pics to "The Great Humongous" thread.
