yeah, its kinda bulky and i cant run my stock 04 taillight (cuz its so big)..Its functional though for those places that require a spark arrestor..this is the only reason why i bought mine..

I have run one for a year and a half now and love mine. Really like the lower dB level. Mine is polished and doesn't look too bad. Had to mod the rack and tail light though.

I have ran one alot in the dunes at Florence Or. were they are real sticklers on noise and love to hand out noise tickets and if they see a hush kit on your banshee they wont even pull you over and check you.The hush kit never seemed to hurt the performance.

but noob ? here what is a spark arrestor do?

they're to make sure that a backfire through the exhaust doesn't cause a fire or explosion. i should probably have one on my bike, since i ride around a natural gas plant. inboard boats have them over the carbs instead of filters, so the gas fumes don't explode in the engine compartment if it backfires through the carb.
