I've got the caryb off again to tweek it.
As soon as I get it on again I'll fire her up and record a clip for you.
IMHO the pipe isn't too loud. Sure it has some bark but no more than the local Harley riders.
HERE is something someone else posted.

Added the You Tube clip. Click HERE.
She's still running a little rich with the air box lid on. I'll try it without it on the W/E.
Throttle response is great. No low down bog. IMHO the jetting isn't far from spot on.

That's got a good growl to it.

wooohooo...got my missing X-ring today and installed the 2 bros...had to remove the old gasket from the header pipe and measured the ID of it..it was 1.4-inches and the new mid-pipe OD was just over that, so I bought some high-heat gasket glue and put some on the end of the mid-pipe before inserting it into the head pipe. So now i am being a good boy and waiting the 24 hour cure time before firing it up...thanks for the clip..can't wait until tomorrow nite to hear it in person.I'm thinking the slip-on was made to go in the head-pipe minus the gasket from the measurements I took, but still felt the need for some sort of sealant, hence the gasket glue..it shouldn't leak and the glue is rated for 650F, so I think it'll be fine.

Similar to what I did. 200km on the pipe now and no sign of a leak anywhere despite some tuff AUSSIE punishment. Nearly got those whoops whipped.[sm=gears.gif]
I'm really happy with it so far.

WOW..this pipe is a lot louder than my drilled stock exhaust. I expected a bit of a change but WOW...I think i like it, but have not had it for a ride yet to know for sure. It's pouring rain outside today and doesn't look like it will clear up until Saturday. My bike inspection is up, so i hope to get it inspected by the week-end so i can take it out for a good run..don't really want to chance a ride on it before inspected as I am sure the loudness of the new pipe will draw unwanted attention, but if it stops raining, I will likely succomb to my urges and sneak it out for a short run.

Is anyone else running without an insert in the two brothers? And do you find it draws attention? It sounds awesome, but loud.

I'll have my Two Brothers installed and my carb rejetted in about a week. I plan on using the P3 power tip, though, since I'll be using the bike as an occasional commuter. Can't wait for the the sound, though.
