Hello everybody,

Likemost Buell owners I'm looking for an exhaust for my bike.
I have a European Buell XB12SCG from 2010.

Does anybody know what the differences are?
Does anybody have good/worse experiences?
Maybe other exhausts?

Kind regards from Belgium.

For £300 the Stealth is a great bit of kit, reasonably loud without taking the piss. I have never seen an Albert in the flesh, but it is common knowledge that his workmanship is excellent.

Having seen a few 'Albert' pipes, the fabrication is a work of art :yup:

And how much would one have to save for an Albert. That just sounds rude :)

My AlCan is great! :clap:

Only had it for about 500miles, still as new.
Has an easily removable baffle, once that is done, the sound is lovely - no complaints from the neighbours yet, although it is loud.

Lots of lovely popping on overrun! If you're not smooth with the throttle, it's like a gun fight! :rofl: :yup:

I've not heard a Stealth apart from on YouTube, but that is never the best way judge.
Here's my attempt at a comparison video (OEM v. AlCan)- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nq6pkN-X58Y.

I chose the can made by a member of this forum, who is passionate abobut what he does and deserves praise he receives.
:worthy:

Hmmmm.......I had that zorst fitted to my CR for less than 60 miles and had to remove it as it made my/everyones ears bleed !
I have Buell race systems fitted to all my tubers, so I'm used to loud pipes......I have heard the same system fitted to Alberts own 1125 as well as many others he's made and they're all a lot 'quieter' than mine......beginning to wonder if, in his haste to make mine, he forgot to pack the can ????? :?

Breaks my heart to see such a work of art hanging from the ceiling at my shop :(
