Ya in a perfect world things would bolt up evenly, nothing would ever need to be adjusted. This stuff isn't perfect, nothing is. Big deal, you put the exhaust on quickly and it doesn't look even, you go out the next day and adjust it. I don't see how hard it is to do that. Is it a pain in the ***? Yes. Sometimes its the Indian and not the arrow.

When you put the exhaust on, you'd have to play around a little to adjust everything and tighten the bolt down one by one... and check again... loosen a little... adjust... tighten... check... repeat until it's close to perfect.

took me 2 minutes to adjust mine...piece of cake! All you need is a 3 inch clamp...done in minutes and no jacks needed.

If people want to pass on this exhaust so be it...I like having one of the better sounding 370's out there ;-)
