oh for sure, loud is good. maybe i'll just call them sometime in the near future and find out. i don't see why not. maybe someone else knows.

and they've got the heat sheids in the catalog that fit the pipes, or maybe i'll wrap them instead...hmmm, what ya think?

i dont belive they will fit because of the 02 sensors and also you have a 200mm rear tire so i think that changes the game a little bit. anyway i would call before you give up on them.

Remember what John J. Arbuckle said, "You get what you pay for!"
Why do you think that similar style pipes from Vance and Hines cost more than twice the amount?

The Big Growls will fit an 08, I have a set of up and outs on my cross bones (with a 200mm tire). They are no O2 bungs that is why they only list '86-'06. I'm running a PCIII so the bungs weren't an issue.

The chrome is good quality. You will for sure need the heat shield or wrap these pipes, mine start to blue rather quickly. It could just be my fuel setup.

The pipes are LOUD and running no baffles you will lose some low end power.

Here is a couple of vids:

I got mine off ebay and saved $50, check out BKrider. It hard to beat for the price, or you can pay twice as much for a pipe that everyone else has.
