1. Loud with little to no power gains, and in some cases, a loss of power
2. Look like chit
As has been mentioned, Akrapovic, Leo Vinci, and the Japanese mfr's (Arata, Sato) offer better welding, power gains, etc. If you just want to fart pipe your bike (like some dipchit Civic driver) to make it loud, then pick whatever you like. I'm not a big fan of loud exhausts just to be loud. When I see this on bikes it's the same thing as the lil F&F crowd putting coffee can sized exhausts on their cars just to make noise.
