Has anyone used them? If so can I use the reducers from Mikes xs to make them fit. Also how do they sound? Thanks MIKE

Sportster mufflers work nicely on the XS650. Mike's adapters should fit. These mufflers look great and I like the sound, deep and throaty but not too loud. You need to find a pair, eBay is a good place to look, that are from a 90's or perhaps an early 200? Sportster as the newer ones have a balance tube running between them. I got mine for $20 bucks on eBay.

I found a set off a Dyna Wide glide on ebay for cheap. They look like the Sporty mufflers without a connector pipe. I used a piece of 1 3/4 inch straight automotive exhaust pipe to extend them toward the back
8 inches, and fabbed two heat shields from a piece of stainless from a counter top to cover the extention. Polished and attached with two
stainless 10-24 countersunk screws. Looks great and sounds even
better. I'm happy.
