I finally did it!
01/07/13 10:43 PM

I broke down and ordered the Black series Two Brothers exhaust. I took my buddies Connie14 for a ride back from Orlando (he took my 14), it had a nice Two Brothers pipe on it and man I was loving the sound. Loud when you want it, quiet while rolling down the interstate at speed. I couldn't get enough of the sound (I'm a sucker for a good exhaust). That pretty much sealed the deal and I ordered my exhaust last night! Should be here by Thursday according to the tracking info. I can't wait! I'll post some pics when it's all installed.

I also just got my new RAM mount for my GPS and I love that, got to use that yesterday and it works fantastic, I highly recommend it. RAM makes really good stuff. Now I just have to order the sliders for it and I think she's all done for awhile. Well I say that as I sit here searching for that cool green rear hugger lol...

@Phantomx2k

Congrats on making an informed decision! Now which one are you getting? Are you ordering the P1 tips as well or other?
Where did you find the best deal; ie supplier?

Curious minds and possible buyers as well, want to know!

P1 tips dont really quiet it down that much, I got the P1X tips in the end, the 2 brothers arent really THAT loud, its just a little annoying at constant speeds, amd my helmet is pretty quiet, and I use earplugs, if you want the tips, Amazon has them for the best price with free shipping through riders needs

Thanks guys! I got the black series aluminum ones, they looked sinister in the photos. I started searching the typical bike websites and Two Brothers distributors, checked with the local cycle shops and the best price was on ebay. It was originally $618 and I made an offer of $575, they countered with $598 and free shipping. It was a great deal. I had been researching for awhile it was down to the following:

Delkovic - they seemed to have a really nice product at a really great price, this was hard to pass on but after a few you tube clips and the lack of information available I was a bit gun shy on these.

Muzzy M4's - either the regular or the megaphones, I heard the megaphones on a bike and they sounded really good, Muzzy has a great rep and a good product. Price about $560'ish.

Two Brothers - I've used these in the past and been very happy with every single one, they are a known quantity and sound great, deep and throaty which is what I like. I've ridden thousands of miles with there pipes and always loved them. Originally I had ruled them out because they were a bit more than I wanted to pay being up north of $700 for most of the pipes I found, I didn't want polished (the cheapest) and the Carbon Fiber was just more than I wanted to spend. After riding the Connie with one and then finding the black series for the right price I was sold!

As for the ram mount I'm using the one that fits in the center headset bolt opening. I have the short 1.5" arm and the holder for the Garmin unit. It's excellent. It can be positioned anywhere, sits just out of the airflow and is easily readable with my tank bag on. Oh and I can still get to the key no problem. I have installed a 12v outlet that is under the gauge cluster and attached via velcro and zip ties essentially to the front fairing stay. It's out of the elements and really hidden, you gotta really look to find it.
