RE: FOURBIDDEN PIPES QUESTION
I pretty much ride in pants only. They do get hot, and since I don't have highway pegs or bars, I tend to get lazy at times and rub up on them. With the wrap it's not too bad, at least you won't get burned. I defintely could ride in shorts, but choose not to.
They don't offer any heat shields for these pipes, if they did, I'm not sure if I would use them or not.....

Warg, it's been cut and raked 3. The guy I bought it from did it, and did a real neat job too. Most guys that check it out can't figure out where he cut it. I am ordering a raked bearing set with bearings to mess around with this winter. Gonna see if I can get away w/o having to go longer fork tubes.

The Harley store in my area informed me they can install these on newer/EFI bikes with O2 sensors. They have to take the one's out of your old exhaust and weld them to the new one's. So, pipes are on their way, and as soon as I get back in town, I'll take pics and post. It should look pretty cool with Black Nash Gimps and Black Exhaust.

Good to know. I'll definitely mention that to them when I go up there. I'd weld them up myself, but I don't know where exactly to place them on the exhaust as far as downflow and back pressure. They told they have to set an initial tune and then set it up for bank 1 and bank 2. Too much work and math for the likes of me.

RE: FOURBIDDEN PIPES QUESTION
Here's a look at the Fourbidden Darksides on my Springer. I've had em on for about 6 months now and will be going back to my Pro Pipe soon. Nothing wrong with the Hooker (other than a little more heat). I just like the looks and sound of my blacked-out V&H...
