I just bought an 07 XB12Ss and of course it is too quiet. I noticed that the Jardine for XB12 won't fit the Long and was wondering what other options I have besides getting another stock one and having it modified by Drummer or Special Ops? I don't necessarily need to put the chin scoop back on. Thanks in advance for any input.

Quote: and did you get this confirmed that the jardine would not fot the ss? not really, it was at Dennis Kirks ebay store. They were the ones that said it doesn't fit Ss or cg. I'll look again and see if there's a part # and confirm it with Jardine.

Just checked the Dennis Kirk site and got the part # and went to Jardines web sight and it says it fits XB12R and XB12S models. Doesn't say anything about not fitting the Ss or cg nor is there a different # for those bikes.

Thanks, mrdozer2you, it looks like a Jardine for me. I read the full comparison of exhausts @ americansportbike.com and it seemed that the Jardine fit riding style and budget better than the rest. What else will I have to do when I put it on? Remap, ecm, or anything.

I did nothing to mine, runs fine.  When I do the open air box I will get a new ECM.  When you get more air in and out of the engine you are bound to make it run lean, a new ECM with the right fuel map should fix it.

best thing to do is change all 3 things at once airbox - ecm - exhaust for the ecm you can chose a race-ecm which is pre-mapped or you can go for the other solution and remap, which is more expensive.

ooh and if your choice is the jardine, make sure you repack it back up every 6-7k miles

Best bet is to inspect EVERYTHING before any ride.  Depending on how you ride your pipe may last 4k miles or 10k, same as for tires, clutch, belts, etc.  I'm not a big fan of companies telling me how long stuff will last, or that its maintenance free, or that I'll have to do something at a certain time.  Best idea is to use your judgement.  If something looks loose, tighten it or replace it.  If something is leaking, check it and fix it.  If your tires are low, fill them up, and so on.

The Jardine should fit, I just bought an XBss and thats the pipe the guy hooked me up with! (Just takes forever to get the bike into the shot to be installed) Oh...don't forget to order a new ECM, that is A MUST with a new exhaust!
