none of those.  all dss ducs should have low mount reverse megaphones ceramic coated BLACK. non-negotiable.   ;D - these things are not subjective  [coffee]

Double sided swing arm looks best with low mounts

I've had Arrow aluminum low-mounts, and thought they sounded fantastic. I haven't had Leo Vince, but that'd be my second choice.

I know nothing of the QD slip-ons, but frankly I never really understood the appeal of the under-sump QD box exhaust thing.

My vote is for Arrows.

Check out the Marvings conical exhaust on MonsterParts. They're under $600 for either the low mount or high mount.
Here's my SevenFitty with high mount. I'll be ceramic coating that exhaust soon.

Thanks! They are PS wheels, a bit lighter than the SC (I've never confirmed weight though)   ;D

:'(

High mount or low mount doesn't matter much to me. But I do think the conical/megaphone style exhaust looks better on these older bikes. Just my .02.     [bacon]

Where do you put the license plate?

looks like there's a bracket just under the tail light - or at least he has the license plate light there and what appears to be a little tab to fasten plate to . .

i can see that but the cans point right at it a plate would block gas exit.

Plate was off in that pic. The plate sits between both cans and doesn't block the exhaust. I'll post a pic later for you to see how the plate sits.

I made my decision and just ordered the Marving Conical just like this one, but low mount version from Monsterparts. Thanks Jeff, can't wait to install it. I will also post some photos of corse.

I'd suggest SIL megaphones.  Look exactly like those Marving but louder.   [evil]  I have them on my '03 620.

Don't ceramic coat it!  Those silver phones look great under the black frame and over the black swingarm.  Contrast is a good thing.  Also matches your silver front end.
