Default Scorpion - CF or Ti...Change of Plans

Been searching around a lot for an exhaust and the Scorpion has gotten my attention. Main think I like is it uses the stock exhaust mount, not a bracket to the rear set like others. Went to one of the local dealers that I remembered had one on a bike on display. The Ti seems to be calling my name, both about the same price too. Best so far I've seen was $390 from http://starcycle.com/ ...anyone ever deal with them?

Found a clip on youtube:

Not a big fan of how the Micron comes up and uses the passenger peg mount...I personally like the lower outlet exhausts...but a lot of the use a bracket to the rear set which I don't like either.

I like the Ti better, too! I'm thinking about a slip-on for mine, and that one is also on my short list. Have other things I want to do first, though.

Ti might have a slightly different sound than the CF, that CF sounds great in the clip.

Nope, all that is one piece and comes off.
