Idk anything about them but look like no baffles and would lose a lot of power. Just not long enough. Be loud as hell though. Would look cool to see some flames hitting the ground.

A friend of mine has them on his bike and I can't stand them myself. No baffles and to me they look extremely cheap not to mention the exhaust ports are right on your leg when you put your feet down. I have seen different versions of this setup through other companies that I like a lot better than these.

Default They are on my 01 custom

I like them. My buddy and I bought A set for ours at the same time, and we get a kick sweeping the curbs.
We installed the torque cones as well. Neither of us noticed any power loss, and with my forward controls, you don't feel any heat, except the the shoes when stopped. I just set my foot back slightly, or keep it on the peg. They are LAF!

near identical to the Twisted Choppers pipes I put on my 48. The Twisted come complete with the O2 bung and heat wrap included. I love them!

those pipes caught my attention too! i'm often too scared to buy cheap parts cuz I'm afraid they are made that way too.

I thought all chrome parts were made the same...i learned the hard way they are not. some aftermarket parts started pitting after a ride along the shoreline....already chucked them in less than a year. needless to say, those were "cheap" parts, but they looked cool. i think you get what you pay for whether you dish out lose change or a kidney for parts.
