Anybody running one of these? I'm very tempted to get the carbon on my black K9
Be good to hear of any reviews |

I've got the carbon one on my fully faired blue K9. Fits really well and looks very nice. The sound is nice and smooth too, even better with baffles out but I leave them in as I commute on it. Hopefully a picture will show below if I've managed to figure out how to do it properly:

I've got the carbon parallel serket too.
I leave the baffle out and commute. It's not stupid loud but sounds the part. Pops slightly occasionally and doesn't increase the insurance. I leave the house at 7 am and don't worry about the noise with the neighbours- keep it below 3500rpm and it's no noisier than most exhausts. The warranty is impressive. It's a lifetime warranty and they do stick to it. Mine had a problem with the riveted part for the bracket fixing -a week back at the factory and came back fixed, polished and back to perfection. (They changed the bracket fixing afterwards-i think they realised a problem with how mine was made) |

I've got the titanium one, I think it's one of the best looking ones and suits the pointy SVs style really well. Build quality is great as you would expect from a premium exhaust and sounds great. I've tried it with the baffle in and thought it was a little dissapointing, however with the baffle out I think it's great. It's the right amount of loud without being offensive and sounds good. I also like how it mounts OEM style rather than with a strap.
I had one on my last SV and had a look around (mostly at Pipeworx and Fuel) when I got my second SV and got another one of these. I've not really noticed anything power wise but both times I've found it's a lot smoother on downshift and less likely to lock up the rear so I really like it.
