Default New Pipe

I couldn't stay away from the Thunderheader and I am stoked I did it.

The sound is amazing and if the performance is even close to the sound I will be more than happy. I know quite a few of you liked my old pip, V&H BR 2-1, but I wanted something different to complete m engine build. Black ceramic T header was the only way to go, IMO.

The quality it much better than I expected and the instal went smooth. The bike runs great as is but i will still take it to the dyno to see if my numbers change with the pipe swap.

Liked the V&H shiny look, if only the TH was gloss black. Glad you are happy.

I'll have to admit I was not a fan of the Thunderheader exhaust.........until now! Those pipes add to your scoots old-school bobber look Tweak. I'd love to see perforated chrome heat shields on them. Your scoot still takes the cake around here IMHO.

I still have yet to hear them in person.


Those pipes need to be wrapped! That would set them off and yes, I agree...your bike is one of my favorites.

Been waiting for you to get back. Looks better that way IMO. I bet it will work better that your BR2-1 too. I agree with Vinsil, you need to wrap it and go for the hot rod look

Don's pipes have me drooling and that is what I was thinking when I wrote that.


Then MUD posts up the pics of them close...it had me shopping ebay looking for a set to copy.
