+1 with smokin, if that's what your after hard to beat the price and sound of Muzzy. If you want all out 1/4 mile performance and Maps for about every combo you can run Brocks. i use the Brock Smeg.

Forget about the pipes for a second cause there is alot of good ones out there. If you want service and any help with the pipe after purchase then I doubt there is any better out there than Brock. That alone is worth the price of his pipe!! Oh bike runs great with his pipe too!!

Muzzy has the bung installed. Everyone LOVES Brocks customer service but I have been just as happy with Muzzy's customer service. I have bought many pipes in my life and have never needed "customer service" after the purchase anyway. There isn't much else to do after the pipe is installed  (I'm a custom map kinda guy)

Buy the one you think would look nice to you. HP?...unless you're a hp fanatic or a tire ripping drag strip demon...don't get so hung up on "which pipe gives more power".
I installed a full YOSH system, looks great and HP - wise no major difference between the so called "big HP" pipes...besides - Yosh looks the best on the 14 IMO.
No such thing as "disadvantages" when you go aftermarket exhaust...it's the best thing you can do for a first mod.

Tehy are both GREAT pipes if you dont mind spendin a little extra get the brocks Pipe ... same dyno same bike same day the Brock made 9 more HP on my bike and 3-4 more ft/lbs and more total area under the curve as well but is that worth 400 bucks to you that is the question and by the way the Street meg is a little louder then "not too loud" and the Gen 3 will make 3-5 HP less then the Smeg so that puts it real close to the Muzzy... wow I put no punvtuation in that paragraph sorry

You guys make me laugh.
You'll spend $11,000 on the fastest bike on the market... but when it comes to buying a pipe... you dont want every single last hp it can produce....lol

Brock Gen3 or Smeg...ZX14_1965 is wrong, as usual. The Smeg makes the highest peak power around and it it well known around around here too. A "pipe" is not a "pipe", there are differences, sometimes as much as 5-8 HP between one pipe to another due to pipe flow and size and bends. Best 1st mod would be removing the secondary throttle plates for the street, not the pipes, as you will gain 25RWTQ minimum at 3500 RPM and linearity in throttle response..show me any exhaust on this planet that will do that. Cost with a PC3 if you want to add that, is about $300.00...once again, show me a $300.00 pipe that can give you 50% more power where it counts on the street. Best 1st mod is to close your ears when ZX14_1965 talks.
