what kind of pipe do you have?
does the sporsterpipe work just as well as the jardine?
Don't know about jardine vs sportster. Most people say the Raask pipe is the best, but I don't have any experience with that either. I got a cherry bomb, aka glasspack, and stuffed a thumbscrew in the back for a little more back pressure.

Due to the large body diameter, it fit right onto the stock muffler bracket without a problem. It is held on with a strap clamp.
I took the CB to the shop at work and put two slits into one end to make sure it would fit easily. I did not need them at all. I sealed it up with some high temp (red) RTV sealant.
Be aware, though, these, and the raask, are
extremely loud "mufflers." When I get on the throttle, it's a 140 dB easy. Even at idle, it's at least 90 dB. Yep, that's illegal. I keep it down 95% of the time.
