Talk to your Indy, since you have had your exhaust ports done the crush gaskets could decrease your port size and thereby nullify what you paid all that money for. That's why the SE gaskets were invented.

Allot of us haven't had head work though so it wouldn't really matter for us. If you already have the SE gaskets maybe you could give them a try. Im sure 10's of thousands of people have used them with good results and CVO's probably come stock with them.

Thanks for the gasket tip, guys. Ordered them...along with a set of 36's! I've had the cholo bug for a long time and pipes are the only cure. You won't be the only one around with long dualies, tbone!

SWEET! I would love to see yours when your done. Maybe sometime hit up a few river watering holes around here or this area. Tons of bikes come down and some weekends it's like a unofficial bike show out in the parking lots.
