I'd say that Jean's quip is worth at least a few points.

I agree with Dwerbil. J.C.Whitney for the best deal..R100S and R100/7 have been wearing for years and sound fine. Close to stock !

If Jean hadn't already used the "hitting below the belt" line then I might've! Might've been a bit too blokey however. Apologies Jean if so.

I bought a pair of the cigar silencers and received them from the left coast after a week. Emgo brand, look good.

Thought I'd resurrect this thread rather than start a new one. Bike is '78 R100/7.

Has anyone any experience with JAMA Laser replica mufflers?

Do the EMGO mufflers have the pressed in relief areas to clear the brake pedal and rear axle?

Cannot find decent pics of either brand to see for myself.

Thanks
Rob
