i would recommend the white brothers e-series, its adjustable and it sounds much better than the HMF in my opinion. I have an e-series slip on and i'm very happy with it.:macho

hmf 100 %, white brothers have a tendancy to crack at the welds and hmf quality is top of the line. great people too

First and foremost, I would steer clear of anything that says 'White Bros.' on it. The overall quality leaves a lot to be desired.

With HMF you get a very well made, good performing pipe, and the tech guys are more than helpful after the sale. And you can pick your color too, lol!:p

my sons friend just got the hmf pipe for his 300ex and looks and performs great. just to let you know that if you call hmf they will suggest you to get a white brothers header pipe to work with the silencer, to get maximun performance, to run with stock header will not see a diffrence. i'm no professional on this just stating what they said about there pipe. dirtwheels ran an article on pipes and the hmf would have been at the tops if not for the sound issue, but they do have a quiet core to help..will be getting an hmf for my Z...hope this helps Bill

Kid had a White Brothers E2 on his YFZ, had it for not even a month, and the top hanger broke clean off the pipe, even took some packing with it. You could see the core....looked pretty cool, sitting in the trash can when I saw it that is:devil:
