do these things, and most of us bike guys are not the brightest light
on the boulevard! Yea it is louder, ya looks cool. As far as back
pressure in the exhaust header what is this? It has to do with how
the gas/air swirl inside cylinder and the "sonic charge" that is a
pressure wave that has effect on a molecular level that hits when the
Ex. valve opens it is how the next charge will take shape and fire
the next power stroke. The Japanese are intensely brilliant when it
comes to this in their bikes and cars. STOCK IS GOOD

Carb?? or timing?? would have to be retuned due to some king of back
pressure deal. A Harley is not in my future so I didn't pay a lot of
attention. I think Miles said the 600 needed that kind of back
pressure. I really don't understand all I know about that

But it sure looks like a perfect fit. Gas filled......

turned out to be a spark arrestor from an old generator. Part of the
exhaust pupe was some type of flexible metal hose that rattled like
crazy and made all kinds of noise! The glasspak seems to work but
it's a bit loud. I'd sure like to find an original exhaust system.

    You have hit the nail on the head.  Engines are pumps, volumn in = volumn out.  Because of the reformulated fuel we are burning having a larger our more open exhaust should not be a problem, nor should the carb.  But leave the top off your air box and see if it run's better/easier to adjust.  I have had to cut parts of air box's out in the back (so they don't show) because the snorkel is to restrictive.  Not much different at idle but what a difference at speed.   Also, mufflers made these days are already less restrictive because they are all made for vehicles that have catalytic converters on them.
