Got the new pipes on the bike last night and dropped it off today for SERT and Dyno.

I wanted to go with something a little different and a 2 into 1 design.

First I was suprised by how discolored the stock pipes were.



Here's a picture of the stepped design and baffle.

I really like mine.

There is one problem area with these pipes at the 90* angle of the mounting bracket because of the length of the pipe, the bracket it works that corner till it cracks and breaks, you should weld or have a gusset put on the inside of the 90*

My bracket broke on a trip to New Mexico, a friend put a gusset but it had already cracked the weld at the collector so I had to fix that next and decided to shorten the pipe some also.

I would say, even with the problems I have had it is a great pipe and I would get another.

How do they sound? I was really looking at those before I decided to go with my big radius pipes. But since I hadn't seen them on anyones bike or heard anything, I wussed out. Are they loud, or what? How's the performance gain?
