Cool looking bike and sounds great. The new clean pipes look good.

I really do not know but I kind of doubt it. (gets too good of gas mileage)
What I do know..
The bike started out as an "Anniversary" model that was jazzed up by Killer Creek HD in GA. It had one owner and has a Kenny Reynolds paint job..

I liked their look but it appeared that they will not accept the "quiet" baffles

I got that long "stare" thing.. then she looked across the shop at all the other bikes and looked back at me with that same stare...

I am an expert at the "forgiveness" thing.. (but me thinks it is getting worn out)

I am really wishing these V&H pipes did not have the scratches. I would just buy the "quiet" baffles and go.. Problem is the rest of the bike is pretty much pristine and they are going to stick out like a sore thumb..

Guess I will just buy fresh pipes and new baffles.. The old pipes would look just fine on someones "every day rider" so maybe worth a few bucks...

NOW... how do I make new pipes look like something I just gotta have to momma...

Be careful...
The first time one of you get a bad burn on your leg from those drag pipes You both will be looking really fast for something that has heat shields. I still have scars on my legs from when I was young and ran pipes without shields.
