No more Cholos
So I thought long and hard about it and finally pulled the trigger. I just wasnt happy with the cholo's anymore. Not sure what it was. Really trying to go for more of a bobber look. Getting some 16" chubbys next week and then working on the 21" front probably after April. Anyways, I'm digging the way the Samson Sidewinders are looking right now and they sound nice. Pretty sure I will have some 39" cholos for sale in the near future.
+1 I deffinately like the look. How hard was it to do? Maybe I should wrap mine. I haven't saw my bike in person yet but I can tell the pipes are turning gold. Mine don't have the Heat shields and I don't think the Shields would cover all of the gold coloring.

For those that asked, the wrap was really easy to do. I've been working as a mechanic for the past 17 years and it dosent take any mechanical knowedge, more patience. My advise is wrap them off the bike. I also have to add that I didnt want to wrap them at first after opening the box. These were some beautiful pipes. Huge 2 1/2 inch full cover one piece heat shields and the Samson quality I had expected. Really digging the way it looks now. As an update the very near future mods include 16" apes(14" currently on), tank lift-not sure which one, 21" front wheel, install my progressive 2" drop in the front(been lazy on that one), new floor boards......Thank you tax payers for getting me all that extra money over in Afghanistan/Iraq and every other crap hole I have had the pleasure of turning a wrench in!
