Getting Exhaust.... Tampa Bay FL POLL

I need some input on what exhaust systems to look for for my 04 Superhawk. I would like to do low mount, leaving the stock rear pegs. I would also like carbon fiber or black to match my black bike. Maybe Titanium, but not replacing with SS.

I am finding a million systems out there, Two Bros, Akrapovic, Hindle, Remus, Yoshi, D&D, Leo Vince etc.... I have listened to some sound clips on youtube, but it always so hard to compare them given the sound quality.

If anyone lives in Tampa FL with a Superhawk with an aftermarket exhaust I would love to meet you somewhere to listen to the exhuast.

Any suggestions? I guess it might be easier to ask which ones you did not like. Either poor sound, poor build quality whatever. If you had any issues out there I would like to know. I can eliminate any exhausts to avoid.

Which ones did you love? Oh boy, will I open a bees nest here? My main focus is looks and sound. Power is fine, but whatever. The bike is pretty fast for me as it is. Quicker response would be cool though.

I have also though about modifying my stock exhaust. But I do not have any idea how to do this. Any successes here? Please provide any feedback you can. But I would like to save some weight with new exhaust if I can? If I modify the stock exhaust for sound, will some power come with that?

And again if anyone is close by who would let me listen to there aftermarket exhaust, that would be great.

MFBFL, I live over in Lithia and have Erion aftermkt full SS exhaust with jet kit to match and it rocks! Also, you may want to go to Superhawkforum.com and search "bafflectomy" to see how that would work on your stockers...

Good luck bro!
