I personally don't think they look good on a stock bike.They need a much more radical bike to look right.

Purple Hazer.... I like the comment about the neighbors ! Maybe i should focus on something with a removable baffle for different occasions...? Darn.... those pipes seem intimidating now. Do bikes need to pass emmission tests in Illinois...? I better check. Thanks y'all.

i had bought a set and when i picked them up i noticed ther is no baffels in them so i was going to go with x pipes and no baffels eather but you can buy them but the x pipe i think i would get a leg burn so i just ended up going with short shots and they look cool i might wrap them too

It's the hottest looking pipe out there IMHO. I really tossed around the idea of buying one.
I would buy on in a second, but there are too many riding issues with that design.
Noise driven right into your ear drum.
Lack of baffles so a major drop in performance. Maybe some Thundermonsters could be fished up into the pipes to help..
Loss of rear rider pegs..
Potential soot on the bike.

Just not worth the side effects for me right now.
Next week? Hey, I might change my mind.
