Installed Micron High Mount Exhaust Last Night
WOW!.
First of all I love it.
Installation! Very easy, I read through the directions but it was not necessary. Everything was logical and easy. No fitment issues. No nothing. Smooth install
Looks great! I got the carbon fibre sleave which looks great with all the black on the bike already. The pipe looks so much better mounted up high. I got rid of the passenger footpegs as I do not like riders anyway.
Sounds Great! I was concerned that the bike would be too loud as I live in an up-scale neighorhood. At low RPM's it is not bad at all. Up high it makes some noise. It has a lot more gurgling when the throttle is closed, which also sounds great. I would say that the sound is a 10 out of 10.
Performance! I will put it on the Dyno within the next week or so. However, I ran it on my butt dyno last night. WOW! Big Difference! Felt stronger on both mid and upper range. 3rd gear was much stronger, lifts the wheel on throttle much easier. My butt says 7hp more at the rear wheel.
All and all I give everything a 10 out of 10.

I put on the carbon fiber regular mount today. Sounds pretty sweet. Almost reminds me of the sound of a gixxer or is it just me??? I dont know about the performance gain seeing that the thing is so god damn fast in the 1st place....It seems faster just cause it's louder but who knows I'm waiting for my pc3 to come in to make it better. I am happy with the micron and I paid 500 bucks for the slip on.

Around $535 I think.
One thing I do like is the look of the can is only a sleeve.
The look can be eaisly changed. I think I will order the only that looks like blued aluminum.
