blah blah blah on everyone's comments...I love the way my pipe sounds, and half the people that ride with me say it sounds good just to loud for there taste...I personally love the pipe (look, design, price, and sound...) Sounds nasty at 16k rpms too...It is loud though, but sounds great...

If your really interested we could meet up and scope out the pipe...I live in Oldsmar...I got mine for 150 used from a TR member and have had no regrets

You can also see what the pipe looks like on the bike in my sig...

Sounds like a plan...Did you ever decide which sprockets your going with? I did the Vortex sprockets w/EK chain (520 conversion)...Indysuperbikes.com is where I typically shop

there is no doubt that the pipe sounds good and looks good its just too loud for my taste. and for the price its just ard to beat. the only downfall i have seen is tons of them break. the rivets break on em. but a quick trip to home depot fixes that

520 chain is gonna be a little lighter but at the same time, not as strong. you're gonna want to use that and an aluminum rear sprocket to get all the hp available to the rear wheel, but you're going to end up replacing parts sooner.

If you're happy with your bike the way it is, and you're just a street rider, stick with the 530.. that's my .02

I originally was -1/+2 but I felt that was overkill IMO...I recently did the 520 conversion w/-1 and stk rear and love it...Gives me better acceleration than stk, and the longer more useful gears...

You wont be dissapointed with this setup...
