sounds about right id just steer clear and go with a company that actually wants business and will break their back to help you like trinity

I agree Trinity is nothing but the best! They really take care of you there!

+100000 If reasonable doubt can get you acquitted of murder (just ask OJ) then it should also be able to keep your $$ in your pocket. Skip this exhaust and keep looking.
If the dyno sheet looks like shit, you must not get!

I'll give them a last chance. I just sent them a PM asking them to post a response to this thread.

Not even that PTL, this is starting to sound like a dysfunctional relationship "he promised he'd never hit me again"

Honestly if you just wanted the quad look and money was an issue why don't you buy some Magnaflow mufflers and have a good exhaust shop fab you a custom system.

If you were really concerned about performance then a "quad exhaust" is not something you should be looking at unless you already have an M.

LOL....well I have learned that people don't always act in their own best interest.

I have a Honda VTX with a rare fat 240 tire kit, plus many other mods which I absolutely love to ride and look at. I bought it from a guy who did all the mods himself and spent lots of money on it. He put it for sale at an attractive price and when i called him he was the worst saleman I've seen. I used to call him and he wouldn't return my calls, but I really wanted the bike. Finally I got it after being after him for a couple of weeks, but had I just turned my back to it because of his stupid attitude I would have never gotten it.

In short, these may be good exhausts after all, but these guys may just be terrible business people who don't know how to promote and sell their product and may come across as shady or careless business practices.

Or maybe I'm wrong...

There's a big difference between a busy individual and a company with (presumably) a customer service and engineering department. Just saying, when it comes to individual sellers, yes, persistence may get you the rare item you want. With companies? Usually what you see is what you get. That's why so many member her back Trinity - their customer service is second to none and they will not give you wrong information, they will get back to you with the facts. No nee to change stories when you're telling the truth.

I agree with RedEYE, if you must have quads PM some of the members who have had custom quads done (Tex_Phil for one) and see what it took. From what I understand it's usually cheaper than this or even Remus quads.

Yes the Remus are over $1K. I'll explore the custom option, Magnaflow maybe, that might be the way to go.
I'm just don't know whether they'll end up being any better than the Umnitza ones, for that matter I might just not get anything. My main concern is not to lose any power. This is mostly for looks and sound.
Thanks for the info!
