My wife says to me.."so now you're one of those guys that annoys other people with your loud pipes, huh?" and I replied "yup!"...ain't having a mid-life crisis fun?!

Your bike looks great with them. Way better then stock pipes.bought the Roadburner exhaust on ebay for 399.00 plus free shipping. Installed them today....yes they are loud....but ohhh...sooo coooool!!. I have to say, however, that the IDIOT that wrote the instructions needs to be drawn and quartered....in other words, someone needs to get medieval on their a55. NO ONE with fingers larger than a three year old could possibly attach the pipes to the mounting bracket as the instructions describe how to do...I basically had to assemble the pipes and mounting bracket on the floor first and then carry the whole thing over to the bike and attach it as a unit.....I wear xxl gloves and have fingers like bratwurst (being of German descent and all) :-P
Anyway, after a bit of cussing and fussing, things are good....can't wait to take her out and scare the neighbors....weather this weekend looks promising....

They look awesome on your ride and I do really envy you.
I wish it could be free shipping for me, too... but it isn't!

But, to tell you the truth, I'd prefer to buy a second hand one, because of the lower cost...
I do have to face a huge shipping cost ($225!).

So, let's both cross fingers...

I added the smart partz quiet baffle, but even then I got arrested 3 times by the police in as many month, so went back to the debaffled original...but now moving to the roadhouse!
And, if I can ask, what will be of those "old" pipes?
I'm lookin' for a second hand set...
