Thanks MM,
I will be placing my order within the next week or so with you. I will keep in mind to order the additional exhaust gasket as well........now is your statement true for either the Two Brothers or the Micron? Or are we just talking about the micron........I think I would rather have the two bros if fitment with the bags is not a problem.
Scott,
I saw the 2 brothers system at our local dealer. I know I am going to sound bias but I was not really impressed with it over all.
The muffler can was very nice.
But, the front pipe seemed.... well cheap?
Here are the reasons I say that...
The front pipe is made from really thin material which could or could not be just fine? But, it is a much thinner than both our pipe and the stock pipe as well.
Something I think might have been done for cost reasons as thicker material not only cost more, but is harder to work. Again, taking more time which means higher production costs.
Also, it uses no clamp at the collector pipe or gasket to help sealing, only relying on a spring to hold it in place on the collector. Something we looked at when making ours, but felt it was worth the extra cost to still use both the gasket and clamp to provide a better sealing at this location.
Last, the pipe diameter is much smaller than ether our pipe or the stock pipe, which has to flow less than ether pipe. It also does not make a nice smooth 90 bend like ours or the stock pipe does, but rather a 45 degree bend with a straight section and then another 45 degree bend just before the muffler. Our testing showed smooth type bends flow more easily, and although it is harder to manufacture is worth the effort in making. This along with the smaller diameter of their pipe would seem to possibly not flow as well as a larger diameter pipe with a smooth bend to it?
As for the 2 brothers system for working with the Corbin bags? I have the Corbin bags on my Spyder with our 90 and a Micron and, I know Corbin has a Micron system on their Spyder too.
For info on the 2 brothers system working with the Corbin bags you'll have to ask Corbin or 2 brothers, as I really can't say and don't want to tell you wrong.
