As long as it isn't the CF version, the V&H can is the second best available for the X1, IMO, coming in close behind the Buell race kit item.

Get some wadding, though, you might need to re-pack it. Or leave it without and enjoy the noise. :twisted:

If you have the ECU just fit the zorst, and forget, it will adapt and adjust its self just fine .... as a nice compliment to it, I can recommend a Mikuni Carb, decent Air filter and perhaps US gearing ... will transform the bike completely
