Found this polished billet reservoir at the local Yamaha shop on the clearance table. Brought it home and fabricated an alloy bracket - polished it and mounted with stainless socket screw and nyloc nut to bracket and then flipped my mirror bracket back to the "right" way up and bolted it on. About $90.00 LESS than the Hooligan version. JCW

John,I haven`t tried them on the bike yet. Probably 1/2lb of baffles and tubes came out of each.I`ve seen Thrux baffle jobs before with hole drilling and such,and just couldn`t stand not knowing what was inside.I`ll guess they will be too loud to use but who knows.And it didn`t cost $500 to find out. :-D
