Just ordered the GP can with black center. The option isn't on their website but they sent me a pic of it on a Diavel. Had to get it! They still show the Carbon Fiber on their website but it's not an option anymore. They said the carbon fiber couldn't hold up to the heat generated.

That looks great! Can't wait to see it on your bike. Post them up once you install. I also LOVE the way that can sounds.
I guess we'll be able to hear you in Carytown then when you're coming to Bikes-in-the-Bottom? ;D
Wear ear plugs. I have tinnitus already! See you on the 14th at Poe's if the weather is nice?
Mine: [evil]

If the weather's nice I'll try to stop by. All this cold weather needs to go away.
May or may not have the pipe yet. 2 weeks for assembly and shipping.

Not sure I trust the weather man either. Still, next week has some spring days and I'm heading for the mountains if it really DOES get warm! Unfortunately, Manolo has a new job which doesn't so far allow him to play hooky.:( That nice weather
might last into the weekend..., but who knows. If it looks good, I'll post on the Richmond thread. We've been going over to Osborne Landing for lunch because they
do make a killer Bloody Mary. http://binged.it/12gxAFq (http://binged.it/12gxAFq) Will keep you posted.

Thanks bud! I've still got the heat wrap on, but it's going to get pulled off and rewrapped shortly. I like the way it looks, but I want to redo it so that I can pull the pipes apart to get to the oil screen without having to unwrap. i dont actually think i have any other pics, but it should be nice this weekend so I'll try to remember to snap some while i've got it out.
Awesome, keep up the good work.
as promised: pics from the weekend

Will I need my heavy-duty ear plugs or does it have a decent db killer? [leo] Come to Poe's around 10:00 - 10:30 on Sunday. Should be a good turnout. I'll be there if the old bod is willing.
I got the insert and it's still obnoxious. ;D The wife got Sunday off so I'll have to play it by ear, but if I'm there you'll know. [laugh]

Well, if the creek don't rise, i should be there.
Sick man, just sick!!!! [thumbsup]

Well, I'm gonna be a no-show. Buddy coming over tomorrow morn to help fix my A/C. Hot weather and broken a/c take priority over everything.

Weak!
We've had hot days for two weeks now and you are just NOW getting it fixed?! 8)

Got back in town yesterday and I thought I fixed it.... I was wrong :-\
This can will be my first mod, love the look, just hoping I can cope with the sound!
The more I ride around with it the less loud it seems. My initial reaction was based off the stock pipe and it is much louder than that but that's to be expected. With the insert it just sounds like a loud pipe and you can keep it civil around the neighborhood if you want. Get on the gas though and it will howl. My shift points are all screwed up because 4krpm sounds like 8krpm from the old pipes. I end up short shifting until I relearn the sounds.
It has a bit of a raw sound to it, which I like. Some may not. Not as bad as open pipes though. My neighbor has a harley and I think the only reason my pipe gets more attention is just because it revs higher so the tone is different. I feel the dB level is on par with most of the harley pipes.

Whats this??? Comp Werkes not selling a crappy product to someone? Sounds like they should do the same for the fender eliminator kit as well! lol Sorry to thread jack a little....It just made me chuckle.
