Super easy to install and only takes about 10 minutes including taking it out of the box. Everything lined up perfectly on my '26 1100SX SE, since those and the previous gen 1000SX share (mostly) the same exhaust design. The welds and rivets all look good on my example. If you want to remove the dB killer, you will need to break off a little piece that's tack welded in place to keep the snap ring from being removed (there is a Euro 5 requirement to make them "permanent", this is not Arrow's fault). Slightly annoying but it'll pop right off with minimal effort from a screwdriver. It gives the bike a deep growl and sounds great without droning, and also delivers some pleasant 'burbles' when engine braking. Keep in mind that on these euro 5 bikes, you're never going to get the full potential out of these until you replace the full exhaust and get rid of the bread box lurking underneath the frame. These will make your bike have a little more character in terms of sound but it's nothing drastic, even with the dB killer out. It also looks significantly better than the stock part in my opinion.
