Wanted to reply, unable to find posted (my bad) so posted here...

Also depends on your priorities and relative weightings of the criteria - look, weight, sound, performance or price. Most out there will score well against at least one of those and several will do well against a few of them but I don't know of any that would tick all the boxes. In other words, you have to find the best compromise. Sorry, I know that's not helpful.

Issues with OEM vs. EM vs. AFTERMARKET
Rocket 3 post are of great value in sorting out issues. What is lacking is motor cycle industry standards or communication of standards.

Issue lack of manufacture's SPECIFIC information complicates the quest finding my best compromise exhaust system, tires, etc.

Comparing exhaust systems weight, sound level in disables, and performance to OEM is certainly in the realm of "COME ON MAN!"
Thanks to people posting U tube videos, one can compare sound to sound. Sound being affected by how it was recorded and listening system. Nevertheless general exhaust

How simple would it be for Triumph to provide OEM TO EM on exhaust system?
Case in point, lack of information provided by Triumph...See below
