    Anyone ever heard the two side by side? What do they sound like in comparison. One louder than the other, deeper sound etc. Trying to decide which way to go..

    The Arrow is not repackable, but can be made more quiet with the additional of the Euro dBkiller

    So looking at chart the Arrow can be hushed more than FMF. I know its a matter of preference but which one has a better sound. Looking for the deeper throaty sound. Thx for the info.

    The sound was just one of the aspects I didn´t like about my 630. The Arrows are not just lighter, the sound is a bit louder but most people say that it´s more acceptable, throatier and deeper. Apart from the Arrows being stamped road legal (which is important here in Europe), the police have never remarked on the noise (have been stopped quite often).

    I've heard a TE310 and a TCX250 with fmf's. Powercore4 and Q4's. I have an arrow on my TE 510. I know there displacements going throw the sound off, but it seems that every fmf on a four stroke, Husky or not, has a deeper thump than the Arrow pipe. Even my powercore 4 for my crf100 has a deeper thump!The Arrow is way sexier than the fmf!

    I think the Arrow pipes that came in the '08 p/u kits are the best ever made for our bikes. The Arrows with the s/a shimmed to stop the rattling sound so awesome, and preform excellent! The best can ever for the bullet proof Cagiva motor.
