Man I'm really tempted to order one and see if I can get it to fit on my bike. I've been looking at pics for like a half hour and it seems so close!

I asked the seller about the claim of spark arrestor in the title and he said yes it does come with one. If you want a color that doesn't have that listed you should ask the seller.

I just installed that exhaust on my hawk and it seems just a little louder than stock. Only took it around the neighborhood though.

Taking the Hawk inside for some R&R. I still don't know how to post videos here but I can do pictures. I have a ground level shop inside of the house. I like the smell but I'm not allowed to leave the door open.

Eldric1 · 06-08-2016, 06:26 AM

How was the install? Any problems with fitment?

hertz9753 · 06-08-2016, 07:07 AM

It will be a few days. I'm stuck on the kick stand spring and I don't have much time to work on the bike.

I was a bit puzzled as well. I grabbed a short length of 1/8" cord rope and wrapped both ends around my hand leaving about a 3' loop, put the rope on the bottom end of the spring and let the rope drape down a few inches off the floor. Step on the rope to stretch the spring and move it over the stud on the kick stand.

seriously good looking color/component match.

The vacuum cleaner and the snow shovel are a good match too!!

i think weld said one time, can put pennies in the spring to install, makes sense

But already used 2 quarters to shim up the left foot peg. What's next nickel and diming me?

The stock exhaust weighs about 11 pounds with out the header/manifold. The new one comes in at 6 pounds complete and I will make it fit because I have an Ace Hardware 9 blocks away.

My bathroom scale also told me that I gained 10 pounds, my arms are smaller and my belly has grown.
