What do you mean taped down to the ground? So low that they are nearly touching the ground or really long in the back?

I would just like them to curve downward at the tips.

Sounds like you want the V&H Big Radius 2-2. They look great on the bike. But be warned..they're rather loud.

Take a look at my bike. Are you looking for something along those lines? If so, those are the V&H Big Radius 2-to-2 pipes, in black of course. And jbg is correct, they are a bit on the loud side, but for me personally, I don't feel they are too loud. But remember, YMMV.

Vance & Hines web site will give you some insight.

Keep in mind when you change the pipes you WILL need a fuel management system (I went with Fuelpak - easy to set up a& runs great) also you will need to get a big air intake as well.

Good Luck. Enjoy the BIKE!
