    Yup, that's the same.

    I don't like 4 into 1's anyway. The only reason I have one on The Hornet is I ordered the wrong damn part #. $400 later I gotta use it on something.

      Its a specific brand, not just a header and muffler.

They don't wail like a screeching ninja, the don't rumble like a harley. They just growl like a spactic, stressed out badger waiting to rip your face off and eat your soul." Trainzz~RIP~

        I had one and it sounded ok but the sound of my Kerker was even more visceral...and louder...blipping the throttle made the engine sound like it was barking...like a spastic animal wanting to rip your face off...so to say...

          I have to say the Kerker I had on the '79 standard was that AND MORE! There is no "reason" to have it, but the SOUND was great! The trip leading everyone up through California highway 1, and just NEEDING to "let go". Yes, a few who were on that trip will probably remember the growl to wail when I took it above 6KRPM's. There was something about a Kerker that I thought just MADE the bike.....
