Title: Roadhouse fishtail duels
Post by: cmaddox30 on December 03, 2014, 18:22:17 PM
Hey Guys, new member here. Looking for a complete roadhouse exhaust with fishtail tips if anyone has one stored that they would not mind selling. 2005 1500 Drifter.

Welcome cmaddox30 to the forum. If I get wind of a roadhouse setup or you I'll let you know.
ps You didn't need to post twice as it comes up on our radar as soon as you post ;)

Welcome cmaddox.  Don't I wish I knew.  Other than V&H not many companies making off the shelf exhaust for us anymore.  Makes it hard to find.

People are more violently opposed to fur than leather because it's safer to harass rich women than motorcycle gangs.

Welcome aboard, CMaddox; I dare say, if one of us misers had a set they would be hard to pry out of our hands.....lol. And before the picture hounds start yapping around your heels, be warned:
WE LIKE PICTURES!!!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D

Can't account for quality or fit, but take a look at this stuff available from japan....some of the more interesting pipes with slip-ons that we have seen in some previous pics. Might be worth communicating to them about duels.

Nahhhh, the unicorn of Drifter parts is the Cobra Peace Pipe exhaust!  The Roadhouse is more like finding an albino Zebra.......really, really rare, but they do exist.

The biggest reason I got rid of mine (peace pipe) was lack of storage.....I had, at that point, 3 exhaust systems for my baby. Still have 2.....

And, as we've discussed...   I think your loss was my gain...

I must really live right, I have two sets of Roadhouse Pipes...............Fishtail Duels on my 1500 Drifter and a single style on my Classic. I know I'm a brat for saying it...............but just had too ;)

 Well ok I have a better set up bikerbob5864, I have the original stock pipes for my 800, a set of solid heat sheid Roadhouse  on the 800 right now, and to top it off.....

  under my couch is a set of 2 into one Roadhouse with the standard tip 449705 for a 1500 that I acquired .........might have to buy a 1500 to go with it....

  Well I just might have to do that once I figure out my income after Mar.

I could move to Windsor and have a new house.......

Whoa slow down, don't make any rash decisions.
I would consider being a snowbird, Southern USA during the winter and
beautiful Northern Ontario during the summer. You could ride all year long and
rack up milage like Troll.

Good luck finding those. What I always wanted was the Samson Longhorns they were the long pipes staggered next to each other with fishtails.. beauties...Another solid option is the Samson Long Cannons and then add  slash cut tips Hard to beat. That is what I have on my '04 1500. I love em, sound is powerful and sweet. But alas..If you can find these any longer. I've been checking out the pipe options just for fun...Damn! pipe prices have skyrocketed!
