CooperSpeed:

MCO member hondascooter has the Laser system. You might try PM'ing him. He lives here in Denver down the street from Randy (so I'm sure Randy may have some comments too).

The Laser requires that you cut up your stock exhaust. The sound as I recall is somewhere between stock and the Borla.

I sopke to JAMA a few times regarding their systems. There are actually 5 or 6 different setups. The systems are mostly axleback and require cutting. I was setup as a distributor but I never ordered or sold any.

We installed the Laser system here. It didn't make any power, didn't change the sound, but the tips look pretty cool, and it is slightly lighter.

Hope that helps!

Randy

I suppose it's worth pointing out that the Laser is quite a bit lighter than stock (probably near Quiksilver range). Of course, it would be pretty hard to make an exhuast as heavy as the stocker one.

Actually, it only replaces the stock muffler, not the resonator, so the weight is just a bit lighter.
