Default The Samsons are on!!!
Well my pipes from the Doc arrived yesterday so I thought I would take a little time to install them. I have to say, the install was fairly straight forward. No unpleasant surprises during the process at all. I used high temp silicon around the slip joints, never seize on the exhaust studs and new exhaust gaskets. Thanks again Drew.

Thanks guys. The 16" apes and Ride Wrights are next on the list as well as moving the plate to the side and lowering the bike 1" in the rear and 1 1/2" in the front. Among other little things.

When you measure the slip ons how do you measure them? From where to where? They just don't look like 39" too me.
