Thoughts on a new 1100

I’m looking at getting a new Scrambler, and choosing between the 1100 Pro and the 1100 Tribute Pro.

It looks like the standard 1100 Pro has been discontinued for ‘22 in the US (can anyone confirm?), so I’m looking at a ‘21 1100 Pro now (with a small dealer discount) vs. waiting a few months for a ‘22 1100 Tribute Pro.

Besides the styling changes (color, wheel spokes, etc.) is there any significant difference between the two models? I’m honestly leaning to the slightly more understated ‘21 1100 Pro for looks, but wanted to solicit opinions.

And secondly; I’m planning on having the Termignoni silencers fitted. My previous bike was a 2001 Monster, and the racing exhausts made a huge difference to the feel of the engine, so I’m going to add those right away.

My question is: is it worth also getting the “racing manifolds” upgrade, or will just the silencers alone give the engine that more open feeling I got on my previous Monster? (Or do you have to get the manifolds with the silencers? The “configurator” has them as separate items.)
