Default Hard chrome exhaust

I am looking at going with Hard Chrome 2.5 classic straights on my 01 fatboy, I like the idea of no heat shields, and the no blueing guarantee. Anyone running or have ever run their pipes. Need your input.

I run there T-rex 3" True Duals on my SG, and I have a set of there Big Straights 2-3/4 Pipes on my 05 metric bike. Good pipes, nice sound. I am sure you will like them.

I've got Hard-Krome Kickers on my 05 Fat Boy. I cannot put use saddle bags because the pipes sit up a little high. Not a problem for me, I use a T-Bag on my luggage rack. I also had to move my rear pegs about an inch and a half higher. The Kickers are awesome and LOUD. I have no regrets. Believe it or not, I only paid $125 (free shipping) Brand spankin' new, not a factory 2nd, on ebay. DK-Trader is the Dennis Kirk ebay store I bought them from. They are still selling them! It is a very throaty pipe. I get compliments from my Harley bros, who wish they bought Hard-Krome instead of screamin' eagle slip-ons. I'll be posting pics of my bike this weekend.
