I can tell you the fit sucks, It hits the brake lever. Also the O. D. of the collector pipe is a little bigger then 1 3/4, so good luck finding an exhaust that fits.

But Mike says the problems have been fixed.

I have one with 0 miles on it if your still interested.

Looking at the performace graph it looks like you lose power all the way up to gain some at the very top. If it dont fit right Im not interested. Ill wait until someone confirms the updates. I mostly wanted to know how it ran on the bike. I had a Mac pipe on a 73 back in 74, dont want another one
