The sidewinders are not fishtails but they are upswept. They are the pipes shown in the pic above with the gorgeous girl sitting on the bike. As far as quality is concerned, I would recommend Samson over the Ultima up and outs. I had the Ultimas and they were crap. Samson makes high quality exhaust and it is my opinion that you get what you pay for when it comes to Harley parts. Cheap pipes will always rust and need to be replaced. Quality pipes like Samson's will not will not. That is what you are paying for, along with keeping American Industry alive.

and Mark, my friend, you do great work, but stop posting pictures of girls. The guy is asking about exhausts and all you post are pictures of women. I don't even see a motorcycle exhaust in those pictures! It's not helpful bro
haha

Not trying to **** off anybody, but suggesting that the poster buys pipes he's not interested in isn't very helpfull.

They sound good man... they have a real nice tone while cruzing and a pretty loud bark when I rump on them. Now I did lose some power compared to my rinehart chamber maids, but I still have them so I can always go back... lol If you do go with the samsons I would say torque cones and if you ride with a passenger you may wanna get some kury peg extensions for her feet. I'm riding this sunday and I'll try to remember to get you some pictures of what my pegs look like just so you know.
