A few updates. Just removed the Hbox, and added a set of R1 mufflers to quiet the bike down some. They worked ok fairly well, though maybe too quiet. Any way here are a few pictures.

Looks good and probably sounds nice as well.Without the H-box(balance box) you may lose a little power as it balances the uneven lengths of the downpipes from the engine and mixes the exhaust fumes before they get to the mufflers.

Here's when I had two CX500s on the road with Harley 883 cans on,
