Anyone here running them? I am digging the upswept look. Was leaning towards the shorty revearse cones that Mikes sells, but they are out of stock and I can get the cocktail shaker exhaust cheaper. Pretty sure there was atleast one member here running them. Wondered if anyone else had pictures or input?

Do you mean trumpet style exhaust? If you look at my gallery I had a set on my tx650 for a while but the inner diam was larger on exhaust than headers and I could never get the seal properly. switched to mikes and good to go with fit

Them are the ones. I remember we had talked about the ones you had on your TX on another forum. dig the looks. The TX has 1.5" outer diameter header pipes...correct? The set I found on ebay has reducers to get to that. Were you using multiple collars or a single reducer sleeve like MikesXS sells?

I found em on ebay for less. Costs as much for a pair thru that guy as one side thru denniskirk.

Got mine on about 2 weeks ago, got it off egay. it happend to fit over my pipe instead of in my mac 2 into 1, i just guessed when i bought it and it happened to work out, just had to cut the mounting hardware off the muffler. And cut a line in the header so it would flex. im happy with the way it turned out. sounds pretty good too, i dont have my carbs dialed in yet so i havent heard it on the road.
