unless Muzzle has a "new" design you will have to shim the radiator out or the pipes hit it, that makes installing the fairing a little harder because the holes do not line up properly. This was on a Muzzle m14/10, which is the only Muzzle I would buy.

I think the Brock AH2 is the best bang for the buck. It weighs just a pound/half over the CT Single.. you get the tunning maps and future map support with mods that you may complete.

Muzzy you get the exhaust, plus it's heavier

$1,145 + Shipping for the AH2 setup versus $798.95 Shipped for the M10

if your shopping on a budget i think the answer is in the price.

Sounds like the only problem with the muzzle is when you shim the radiator the side fairings are hard to put on.

I just installed a Muzzy full system on my 2012 ZX14R . I put a couple washer in behind the lower radiator support bracket whick gave me plenty of clearence. The side fairings went right on as the come off with no problems. Sounds awesome. I love the look.

Where are you seeing the m-10 shipped for 798? All I see for that price on muzzy's website is there little round can that looks like it belongs on a ninja 250.

looks sharp, if you got a pc5 and an exhaust for 1100.00 that was a good deal, however the performance you will get from the Muzzy full exhaust is not equal to that of the Brock. Now it you got the M14/M10 that would put apple to apples....

I am sure their street exhaust doesn't compare to the AH2 or Shortmeg 2 exhaust

That is the M14 header with a quieter canister. Just like Brocks the quieter canisters only loose a couple hp on top. I've had 4 Brock system , 3 zx14, and 1 gen II busa. I wanted to try someting else mainly because my dollars are tight. I'm not wanting to star a war here but all the Brocks guys need to realize there are other exhaust. The bike sounds great and runs like a scalded ass dog, raped ape, or whatever other adjective you want to throw at it. Absolutley no flat spots like the zx12r guys reported.
Here is a exhaust shootout Super Street Bike magazine did on the first generation zx14 the Muzzy didn't fair so bad.

Did you have to shim the radiator? I installed my full system and i had no clearance issues what so ever. I didn't have to shim anything, It all lined up and was a perfect fit. I will post up pics when i get the chance..

Reynoldss, in your pic it looks like the mid pipe is a different material than the stainless header. Almost like aluminized metal? Or is it just the lighting in the photo? I'm all about a budget system, but aluminized tubing is where I have to draw the line.

No I didn't have to Ijust wanted a tad more clearance. Mine bolted up fine as well. I love the look as well. I looked at all available exhaust and the Muzzy just did it for me. Gota admit I was scratchin me butt on the body panels. I have no service manual and didn't want to break anything. Once you figure it out its a pretty smart way of doing it.

Nice! Glad they got you taken care of, He ended up taking care of me after i made it very clear that the time i had to wait was BS. And i noticed that the prices have now went up on 2 of the muzzy systems on 58's web site. My exhaust went up 40 bucks in price. So i am glad i bought it when i did.. Every little bit helps..

The muzzys on the 2012 14R I ran was supposedly a "new for 2012" design. That is what Dave/Kurt had said from Muzzys. I didn't have a 2011 to compare to. Picked up about 8 HP over stock but it wasn't dynoed same day. Seems to be about inline with what others reported in terms of HP gain on the Brocks, don't know for sure.
