I spotted these slash cut mufflers on Mike's xs site,has any one bought them? How do they sound? My stock pipes I figure are pretty much hollow, it's the sound that i like.

I saw those also and would like to know how they sound. My stock ones suck, but open pipes are a little much.

i was actually looking to replace my straight thru pipes with those slash pipes on mikes xs.
if anyone wants to buy my straight thru's let me know. I love loud dont get me wrong. but i ride in an extremely populated area and they just dont keep the neighbors happy haha

If your neighbors loved you like they loved themself they will understand.

i went ahead and bought these pipes. and im going to say they are reallllllllly quiet. almost too quiet. sound is good at high revs but when just riding you cant hear the bike running through your helmet. kinda wierd.

Mine got here today,looks like one bolt/nut holds the baffle in.
ight be just the spark arrestor too,May have to drill the end caps for the
right sound.

How did those slash cuts turn out? Were you able to give 'em a little more punch?
