I've been looking to do an underbelly for my F to E conversion. This caught my eye.

Anyone have any experience with this? I searched the site and only found one thread with 3 posts. Whats the decibel level for a stock GS anyway? My exhaust is currently at the sandblasters. The bike looks clean, I want to keep it that way! Ok guys let me hear why I shouldnt do this.

Looks like just a chrome truck turn down with a rubber bit connected to a clamp.  It will be really loud, and doesn't look like it would redirect the exhaust away from the rear tire without a bend put in it ( looks like the pipe is mostly straight with a slight bend and mainly slash cut which is ok if your exhaust has a bend in it)  If it were me and I wanted that look I would just go custom and make it all black under the tail, maybe go with two, one on each side with an x join in the middle.  Just doesn't seem like it would be worth the money.

autozone sells a slasher similar, for about $5. if you hated it, you could toss it and not feel bad. this will require a rejet, ferrr shurrrr

its not the same as just a turn down pipe. that pipe have a baffle and packing to cut dowm some noise but it will be loud. But not as loud as just a chrome turndown tip.
