Title: roadhous doolie exhaust
Post by: kawastony on February 19, 2012, 10:30:26 AM
Sure would like to talk to someone who is running Roadhouse doolies on a 1500 Drifter.  I installed a set with fish fins and I'm half afraid to ride it cause apparently they will drag since I see very little ground clearance once I get on the bike.  I'm new to this posting and sure do not have it down so I would appreciate an email so I can discuss if I did something wrong during installion or that the fish fins are just too big to work etc.  HELP PLEASE.  contact me directly at mcblackstone@att.net if you know the ins and outs of the Roadhouse setup since as we all know they don't exist anymore.  I want to get my scooter back on the road and don't want to damage the tips on a test ride.  Also I imagine I will possibly be needing to find optional tips , so I need help with that too..thanks in advance.. Stony..or Kawastony

I installed a set of doolies on my 02 1500 Drifter and they seem to be about to drag.  Can some one that runs this set up contact me and discuss thie exhaust system since I can't contact roadhouse anymore.  I'm afraid i did not set things up right so I need some help  Thanks.. Stony

If you post a picture of your installation, we can have a look and see if someone can identify the problem.

I have a set on my 99 1500 with short rear shocks for that lower look and turned the fins sideways.....very unique look never got any bad feedback and it looks totally different compared to the Harley's that have the same fins. Don't drag either.
Actually get complements and it just states that I don't conform to the norn, just as the drifters don't conform to the norm
give it a try don't forget to use lock tight on the screws you don't want to lose a fin!
