Default My New Python Fishtails

I finally bought some fishtails. I went with Python Fishtails made by Vance & Hines. With so many option out there, I went with these and I'm happy I did. Looks great and sound amazing. I'm attaching before and after photos.

It sure did, and it's been a long time coming too. Once I sell my old exhaust. I'll be able to buy some hard stretched saddlebags.

They're 36", Python Fishtails. These are made by Vance and Hines and only make them in one size. I test rode it yesterday after the install, I didn't scrape. However, I have a Shotgun Shock system so I can raise it if needed to. I recommend going Pythons if you like the Vance and Hines sound.

I like the look of the dual exhaust but have always wondered about the left side coming up so close to the seat. I assume it can get hot, especially when moving slow.

Looks fantastic. What year is your bike ? How hard we're they to install ?

I'm wondering too, but I'll update later when I get some mileage on them.
