Thumbs up HOOKER pix and vid!!
No. It's not **** but almost as good. My Hooker Rebel (long slash cut) pipes came in today. Fortunately the temps were in the 50's here so I was able to get em on the bike and ride around for a few minutes. LOVE the sound on these and the look as well. My drags that were on the bike when I bought it had more of a nappy, thunder "crack" sound. These are much deeper and more buttery and give the impression of a thunder "roll" sound. I kept the baffles in. Not sure if I will need to rejet the carb as the bike was only ridden for about 10 minutes. She didn't act any differently than I would expect for a 10 minute ride at 50°. I will know as I ride it more if I will need to do anything else to get it running right. Anyway...here it is!

Vid first.

Not sure you can get the full effect but it is an idea anyway

And the install pix.

The box looked like Christmas


All the parts were included and in perfect condition


logo action


a jack would have made things easier but still not bad take off


Bike minus pipes


Putting on the hookers


Almost there


Outside finished!




Thanks for looking.

Looks and sounds great. I wish it was easy to get these FI bikes to idle down low like the carb bikes.
