I've heard the first slip-on that 2Bro's put on a 10 (at least that's what the guy told me - saw him at the local bike night in Huntington Beach and 2 Bros is in Santa Ana) and I'd hafta say the Jardine has more of the "big bore" sound to it than the 2Bros does.
I didn't even realize that the guy with the slower green 10 had the slip-on (BTW - it might be the bolt-on - it's been a couple weeks since I saw it) until I went to go talk to him (same guy that intuitive used to fab their frame sliders).
The Jardine will not have that problem - even at idle.
Haven't heard the other 10 take off so I can't tell ya how it sounds to compare it (HB is zero tolerance with us "bikers").
I can say that the 2Bros bolt/slip-on has a face made for radio (look at their site and you'll see) and the beauty contest goes to the Jardine all the way.
And I also need to say that where the Jardine bolts to the mid-pipe is The cleanest I've ever seen (always a worry of mine as few bolt-ns usually suffer some form of benign elephantitus at that area).
The bike seems to run a lil cleaner and seems happier a lil lower in the rpm's than stock and oddly enough has less of the decel pop than the stock can with the cat removed did.
The only 2 Bros I've ever had was on the Busa and it was a full pipe - from memory I'd say the Jardine is prolly a lil deeper sound.

I believe that I wont be. My friend has been telling me to get a jardine for my 2003 636 for over a year now, and he was so excited when I said I'm putting one on my baby the 10R. I'm really anal about what I put on my 10R, but this pipe looks the best of all the ones I've seen. Has the best consistant power gain (and not at the sacrfice of top end, or top speed like other pipes seem to have).
That brings me to one question.. One thing Jardine has always been famous for is the fact that it sells high quality pipes at a low quality price. Hell most of the D&D exhausts (which are junk in my opinion) are more expensive than a Jardine. I love that.
So if this is an issue which you can't discuss yet, thts fine. But just let me know so I wont keep asking.. How much is the carbon fiber slip on gonna run us mortals? :P And how soon should i be able to purchuse one?

All different days, but that does not matter as much as testing on the same dyno, same bike.

Just wanted to mention the lates sound quality comment by a guy I rode with for about 100 miles last night - "Dude, that thing sounds fuckin bad ass when your on the gas".
One more thing, the welds on this bolt on are invisible.
