Default Bub Jug Huggers

Anybody have these on their Softail? I love the look of these, but have read in a couple of places that they are bad for performance.

Does anyone have any experience with them?

thx
Fred

I had these on my VTX 1300 and they were incredible. The best sounding/performing pipe for that bike IMO. Great chrome too. BUB makes Rienhart pipes which are more common for Harleys. Most Jug Huggers end up on metric bikes, HTH

I had the jug huggers on my 2002 yamaha roadstar. Awsome sound and performance was pretty decent in my opinion. I almost went with them again for my crossbones, but decided to try something different. YOu won't be disappointed with the Bubs, man.

My buddy has them on his V-Rod. When I ride next to him and he cracks the throttle open they make my ears ache. Awesome!!!
