Hi Mavrick. I have only one slip joint (right behind the license plate). Its' overlap on the male was slightly too long requiring me to take, i think, 3/32'' off of the pipe. My primary worry about this is that, I feel, I might need a little more flex in the system- likely by way of a rubber washer with the bolts not cinched down tight. I hear and feel a little bit of resonance in the frame at certain rpm's. Also, I had to modify some of the bracketry to allow the pipe to be fitted.
In spite of the small issues, I applaud Brammo for doing this repair for me.
