Scorpion muffler

I've been looking at the scorpion slip on mufflers. I like the sound, and I think they offer the best bang for the buck. The one thing I don't like is the 'tea pot' look. Any thoughts on this? Should I just look past this? lol.....Thanks!

Re: Scorpion muffler

+1 Shafe is right, Scorpion has redesigned the looks of the exhaust for 2008. IMO they look pretty awesome!

+1 on the looks! I just ordered mine and spent 5 hours installing them. Yup... 5 hours. But then again you're reading a post from a guy who doesn't know jack about motorcycles.

But anyway... the new tips look FRIGGEN COOL!!!

I found out the other day that scorpion is actually made by ackropovic. Something about they couldnt use there name where ever they were and had to change there name.
So yes it is a quality exhaust.
