So I've been dealing with Dave (@Dnewman ). And I must say it was probably the best experience I've had as a customer, ever! It started with just some inbox messages on this forum that lead to a phone call that lead to a new exhaust for my 2015 Cross Country.
I knew I wanted a nice rumble when idling, but nothing that would drone at highway speeds. I also wanted something that would allow my bike to breath better and have it take off from a dig with some balls. Just by explaining to Dave how I ride and what I wanted he was able to explain which exhaust might be best. He gave me very specific details as to why the exhaust was best for me. I couldn't believe that this guy spent nearly 45 minutes with me on the phone to explain how the baffles worked or didn't work on certain exhausts.
So I made the purchase, I got a set of Raging Cajun Rippers. I put them on my bike and I turned on the ignition. The nice deep rumble on idle is awesome! Exactly what I wanted. So I also took it out for a quick acceleration test and it picks up way quicker than with the stock pipes on there! Sounds great when I tap out the gears to about 4500 before shifting. But if I want to take it nice and easy they're not too loud at all! I can cruise at 40 at about 3krpm in 3rd and hear my music just fine. Cruising at 75-80 around 3krpm I can still hear my music, and when someone cuts me off I can get on that throttle and remind them about the use of their mirrors (or lack thereof).
I'm glad i went with the Rippers, I've been getting compliments nonstop from my friends since I've put them on. I will add video when I get home as I'm currently still at work. Oh yeah he even refunded me $2 and some odd cents that I overpaid, WHO DOES THAT?! Thanks Dave, made me love my bike so much more!
