Looks like there are currently 3 major players with exhaust for the 1000. I’m wanting to do something soon, but I don’t want to make a decision that I regret. Ideally I’d be able to see and hear these systems in person, but that’s not going to happen any time soon. I’m hoping that someone out there has either owned or experienced more than one system. My primary interest is the HMF and the RJWC. I don’t see that any have posted a true dyno plot of their systems.

GSE: Slip on system. Looks fairly well built, least expensive, seems loudest. Not sure what lurks inside as to baffles, etc. but it is sealed and no packing. Spark arresters (need 2) sold separately. Made in USA

HMF: Full system from the port out. Most expensive. Large 5" diameter can. Packed muffler with pop rivets on one end for service. Posted actual DB ratings http://www.hmfracing.com/exhausts/po…sportsman-1000 and dyno plots (XL system and fuel controller) https://www.hmfracing.com/files/mode…ortman1000.jpg on web site. Made in USA

RJWC: Slip on system. Most popular here. Options for sound levels, but need to be special ordered for quiet setup which adds lead time. Quiet system is said to not be as quiet as claimed. Said to fit touring "with modifications" but nothing factual about this, HP, or sound levels. No rivets, fully welded and "lifetime" packing. Made in Sweden
