They sound phenomenal. Especially after listening (or not as the case may be) to the stock exhaust for a couple thousand miles...

I can imagine. I am still getting used to actually hearing the pipes!

very nice looking...
and as far as working on your own bike goes, who cares if you change a light bulb or a do a complete engine tear down and rebuild...
its knowledge gained and the sense of self accomplishment is worth it...

I changed my exhaust a few weeks ago, the worst time I had was getting the rear gasket in...holys*(&t was that frustrating. The rear bolts were fun too, needed a deep socket with extension.

pipes

Its always satisfying when you do something yourself not to mention the money you save my dealer is at $80 dollars an hour for labor but they go by the book so if the book said 2 hrs for pipes and they do it in one you still pay for the two what a world we live in they are always bending us over
