Ex Box questions..... Do you like them, still?

[Chchadder]

I'm thinking about getting one myself... torn right now on which exhaust to get...

Did you have issues with clearance from the ground? rocks and other road debris hitting it?

What about taking turns, any chance of the bike hitting on sharp turns?

I actually had a problem with bottoming out a few times while crossing avenues here in NYC.  Could be simply because of the way NYC ave's are convex compared to the streets crossing them, or just the fact that NYC streets suck in general.  I ended up jacking the bike up 3/4" in the rear and 5/8" in the front and had no problems after that.  Of course I had to tap a delrin block into the foot of my sidestand for a while until I found a suitable replacement. 

Note: Though it is said to not work on a 695, the sidestand from an S2R/S4R will work perfectly since their ride heights are higher stock.

Are the Boomtubes that much louder the Ex Box? I have the Ex Box on my bike, and have had no problems with it, but was considering Boomtubes for my 2007 S4RS. Any input from someone who has heard them both in person?

That video doesn't do the sound/volume justice.  When I started my Boom-Tubed-S4R in the garage and blipped the throttle, most everyone jumped about a foot in the air!

I've run both exhausts, and the Boom Tubes are considerably louder than the Ex-Box.

I really like the look of the exbox, stylistically I think it makes a statement, and I like the sound.  I purchased my bike with it already installed and ceramic coated black, but it is a mod I would have eventually done had I bought the bike new.
