Buy a used one for cheap & have it ceramic coated locally!

There is a set for a softtail on there now for $45. Repaint and make a new bracket and beats the hell out of $500.

Brand new bracket from Thunderheader costs $80.
Hey-- back off that softail set I want it. I've been watching ebay for months waiting for a deal and this is going to be it.

Just to clear things up with Rich products...Donny rich owns thunderheader & is not 81... Sonny Barger came along & is basically the calender guy (spokesperson) for thunderheader. Kinda misleading, but this is why folks get confused! One bad a** pipe for sure!

I had one on my 06 street bob. Best sounding pipe hands down. I'm fixing to buy another for my touring bike.

Not sure if my dang picture shows up yet but if you click you can see my album and check out more pictures of thunderheader pipes that I put on my Fat Bob. If your not big on the looks oh well the performance is at the top for pipes and the sound is unique and shakes the **** out of what ever is within 2 blocks. It can be baffled if you find yourself being pulled over alot. Some one let me know if my profile picture is showing please.
