Great value for money exhaust

I was a bit skeptical about this exhaust because it's so cheap. I thought why not for $150. The delivery was very quick. 3 days if I remember correctly when it originally said 7 days. It was packaged very well with no possibility of dents or scratches. When opened, the item was in very good condition. No dents or scratches. Carbon fiber looks good even if it's fake. Installation was pretty easy. Remove the O2 sensor. Stock exhaust removed. Cut it just before the first weld in front of the O2 connector. Reattach the stock headers. I then unscrewed one of the captive nuts on the stock muffler that matched the bolt you pulled out. Slide a band clamp over the new exhaust so you can reach the bolt head while the band is up. Insert the new exhaust pipe into the original exhaust pipe. Then hang it on the old muffler with nut and bolt. Same mounting point for front suspension. Continue to slide the muffler toward the front of the bike while tightening this bolt since the hole is oval. Tighten the band clamp around the flange portion of the pipe. Reinstall and reconnect the O2 sensor. Ready. ** Note. I had to cut about a half inch off the band pinch bolt to keep it from hitting the oil pan. ** There is a baffle at the end that can be removed with an Allen key. The video I included is without the partition. Has a deep aggressive sound but not too loud. Also sounds good with deflector. It's just that the audio is a bit higher pitched and obviously not that loud. Overall I would definitely say this is a good exhaust for the money. If I run into any durability issues I'll be sure to post them here.
