I wrapped 'em on my old chopper. Made the almost 30 year old pipes look pretty good.

Here's a pic of my Hookers wrapped up. To wrap them tightly I highly recommend soaking the wrap in water then wrapping your pipes to get them snug.

It will dry completely while it's running. Don't worry after the initial start because it will smoke alot but will lesson as it dries.

They actually sound real nice, not too obnoxious. I had the Yaffe X-Pipes on it beforehand and lost all my bottom end, after installing these I regained it all back!

My only issue with them is when Hooker "claimed" they were ceramic coated. I personally feel they actually oxide coated them instead. The ceramic is usually smoother and tougher than the coating that is on them now.

I actually bought an extra silver ceramic set of these pipes when Hooker had their clearance sale. Those are for sure ceramic coated and look totally different than these.
