Just put a 9 hawk on my xb12scg shaved 6 lbs and sounds great. sputtered and popped at first on my 08 but after a few miles she got used to it and runs great. not super loud but perfect sound. haven't ridden it hard enough to tell about power yet.

+ 1 on Hawk's Reputaion. Thanks for Supporting your Troops!
Hawk Performance just hooked me up big time.
There is no need to find any other pipe than getting your stocker modified by hawkperformance.

Just wondering anyone ride with a 4inch outlet and a co rider with the dual outlet..heard the Dual on the Web site but most post here opt for the single 4 inch outlet? Why?

REALLY!?
Looks like it's blue at idle, then as the RPM increases it goes green, then yellowish, white, then orange and red. Strange vid effects!

I finally had a chance to actually push the bike since the hawk. Gains seem huge! Bottom end is close to stock but comes alive at about 3500rpm all the way up to 7000rpm. It sounds great too. I couldn’t be happier. I do plan to make a trip to the dyno this summer so I will post it and see what the actual gains are. As a side note anyone wondering about the 08 tuning, it seems to have adapted fine to the Hawk.
I installed my Hawk last week and am really impressed with the performance. Wasn't really expecting much gain but it has a lot more pull and grunt to it. It sounds really mean also, if slightly loud. I put it on my 09 Ss and did the tuning/reset through the throttle and it adapted wonderfully. No issues . [up]

I think I will jump on the Hawk wagon. I am between deployments so I should be home for a few months but my question is after reading Randy's website is $195 including shipping correct? That seems kinda low? I have a 09 12R and I already tied open the exhaust valve so will it be removed or left in place? The about turn around time? I know I'm asking lots of noob questions but I was determined to keep my bike stock until I heard a Buell with a (no idea what pipe) pipe so I was bitten.

yep..i got my pipe back from Randy last week..and i had a jardine on it with the race ecm.
sounds better and better low end by far.
might have lost a tiny bit on the top end but who cares?
he has helped me out more than once and will tell you what you need to know..if he doesn't know or isnt comfortable he will steer you in another direction.
i talked with his buddy mel today and he was helpful with the ecm spy.

Well after reading everything I think I'm going to try to find a used XB exhaust to send to Randy and if I can't find one I'll just send him mine. I'm so excited!
