Just for comparison here is the weight of the stock DA-100 Mufflers.

Yes, DL mufflers will fit a DA.
Stock DL mufflers are 6.5 oz.
They are not even close to the thickness/strength of the Slimline or even the DA's
I have had DL-50 mufflers fail, but so far no issues with the DL-100 mufflers.

Just look at the thickness of the downtubes between the stock DL and the Slimlines.
The heavy/stronger construction is all the way around the whole muffler.

Slimline.



Stock DL

basically its a hole through the muffler lined up with the needles so you have direct access to both needles.

BTW: out of the packaging we are at 9.5oz per set

The SB Mufflers is a very very bad muffler. I have a pair with less than a year old and i had to send both mufflers to the machine shop to repair because with the vibration the mufflers comming aparts. Cracking and finally broke two times. After the fix the weigth is more than a Jtec or a DA Stock.

Dont buy this mufflers.
