Title: Muffler
Post by: Szokez on February 26, 2017, 05:04:24 AM
Hi everyone.
Brand new to the VDR Forum.
Totaled my beloved 800 in Jan, just bought a 99' 1500 yesterday. Love it. Problem is the muffler. It's the single Cobra had been put on in California. Ugly! I still have the fishtail from my 800. Can I put that on? Don't know much about specs, wondering if it is too small for the 1500cc engine.
Please advise.
Thanks
Z

Exhaust from an 800 will not fit a 1500 or visa versa without a lot of mods......

Ok, thanks. I guess I start to hunt for a better looking set.

You can use a Vulcan classic, with mods to the mounts. The 800 is just not going to work, but you can sell the 800 pipes and use the money to buy another set for the 1500.

If you are talking about the Cobra Peace Pipe, it's a much sought after and valuable part.

Blast you Troll!   >:(

Here I was going to offer him a few dollars to take that ugly muffler off his hands...   ;)

I have a peace pipe and two complete stock systems, and an extra muffler.....never know what you might need.
