Really not a fan of the fishtail exhaust . I'm a fan of the 2-1 look myself and boy oh boy sure glad I found my roadhouse after a lllloooonnngggg hard search ! I've seen the fish tail exhaust on a 1500 that have the setup on either side of the bike and that looks sweet .
KW I'll put you on top of my list as well if I end up not liking the exhaust on my scoot . Hope you want a black one though .....

  kw understood now, and I will put your name on the exhaust list then. You have #1 spot on the exhaust list now. I thought long and hard about the fender light too, but once I added the front fender guard I thought that the light was too much and being a believer in less is sometimes better idea I left the light off.

No Ratman, I did see that...you passed....for now. But I'm in this for the long haul. Someday, you'll take that roadhouse off for the fish tails or the stock pipes. Maybe not now, but someday. I just want to make my interest and intentions clear.

I am also with you on the stock look. Only exception I might make is exhaust...maybe. I can't even get myself to put a fender light on my 2002....and some of the old Harley "deco" lights of the period are nice looking and easy to get as repros.

For now, I'm watching your roadhouse.....

I have decided to pass on the pipes as I have 2 sets now, and I have about 10 winter projects planned and then save the money for Drift in......but your right I can ride down to Richwood, GB can wash and polish my bike for me while I rest, then his wife and I can go over to Petemoss for the BBQ, and Boaski you might as well join us, then in the morning we can head for Drift in 14.........

Like I told GB in a pm that I am really happy with the stock look of my bike and with the only mod really being the Roadhouse I still think I have a stock bike with only after market made for the bike add ons. So I am going to stick to that theme for my bike, now those on D1's bike would look awesome.....

Anyone riding solo and has folding rear passenger floor boards let me know....lol......

Here's some pictures of how the pipes are mounted to my bike:


Here are pictures of the rear mount:

Here are pictures of the front mount:

The rear mount had been modified for another exhaust system that was on it so I had to make a simple bracket to mount it back on.

Took me a while to look it up. I couldn't remember how to spell it long enough to type it in to google. Been a long day.

That's what copy/paste is for... ;D

It looks like North Bay is only a 9 hour ride. Get up early on a Saturday & head this way. About an hour to mount the pipes and you can be back home in under 24 hrs.

Greenbarn will even wash your bike when you're here.

Will wash for beer....  good beer

Boaski could you take a couple of close ups of your bracket for me please. Thanks
I'll take a couple close up pictures tomorrow, as long as nobody makes fun of my dirty bike.
