Re-packable mufflers any good?

Any one know if these are good, bad or ugly.
It's a SS repackable muffler.
Thought i'd get comments before i click BUY.
Getting tramp kit and strut tops at same time.

    I use to have repackable mufflers on a few bikes I raced and they need to be repacked after each race meeting, as the packing just disintegrates or packs itself tighter up one end. Hope this helps? Phil

    Wow that's expensive, and then there's the freight cost on top.
    Try this site, they don't have prices on there but a phone call to your local exhaust shop is all it takes. They are Stainless too if that's what your after.

    I didn't think that ws so expensive.
    I have several quotes for $900 or so for a mandrel bent stainless system minus the extractors. The freight with the other stuff work out to be about $60. Thats why i was interested.
    Maybe i just get the exhaust local!?
    Any one in Perth know a good exhaust place at a reasonable cost, pref NOR.
