I would post a pic of mine but still haven't figured out how to get it to fit-always tells me that it's too big for page.

Cheers for the comments, yeah I got braided cables and the wiring harness had to be extended 2" but we brough the 4" harness kit, as this was the only one availible.

I'm Thinking about the same pipes.
I narrowed search to the V&H curves or the Supertrapp drag longs.

V&H curves questions:
How much exhaust do you get on your rims?
Does passengers feet touch pipe, looks like they may rest their toe on pipe?

Supertrapp:
do the ends rub on ground?

Thanks
Jeff

I am worried about exhaust on the rims, too. The problem is ... I haven't had enough time to get them really dirty yet and the wife has not ridden on it with me yet. Hopefully someone else can answer your questions or if you give the Michigan weather a chance to warm up some more, I might be able to better answer your questions in a couple of weeks.
