Tired of the big radius, want something unique.
Looking at Samson Sidewinder or Rip Saw.
Seeking feedback on one or the other.
Looks, sound, on a FXST?

I will be using a PC V.
Thanx

 

I would go to venders web sites that have customer reviews attached to each pipe model and see if there is a trend good or bad, may be of help.

 

I prefer the sidewinders. There are not too many bikes with this type of exhaust on it near me. But if you carry a passenger they might interfere with their legs.

Go with Rip Saw's because I am putting Sidewinders on my Rocker C this winter.

From Drew of course. Just gotta save the scratch.

 

If you want to be truly unique, do something like this:



I think this looks totally badass and not something you see on FXSTs much, if at all. If it were me, tho, I'd probably go with a uniform diameter for the whole exhaust system.

 

I like the Rip Saws. Samson has a video on their website with them installed on a Night Train so you can hear and see them on a bike.

 

Here is where the sound bite is on the Samson website

Both are pretty good looking and i bet both sound great. so comes down to if you ride with a passenger i would pass on the sidewinders.

 

SIDEWINDERS! They are so cool!

I installed a solo seat to encourage a preference of no passengers.
But part of me wants to reserve the option on a limitted basis.

Has anyone tried carring a passenger, short rides, with the Sidewinders?

Thanx
