I have it & I love it....anyone that rides w me would disagree. the fellas say I attract too much attention. you will have to remove the center stand but you dont have to cut the brackets off like w the Kerker. Dont get me wrong, Kerker w the comp baffle is a beautiful thing too. if you dont care about the neighbors at 7am when you go to work ...or better a Sunday morning ride.....Im sure they just shake their head. and think about moving :rofl_200: but Jon will call you back, sometimes you catch him & sometimes you dont. Ive talked to him a couple of times & he took the time to talk about everything that came to mind, even just regular ol bs. Mines black ceramic coated & (I guess I would have to inspect it again) but no problems so far w the coating. I kinda like the chrome though.....
