There's no way fishtails can look good, but I bet they sound nice!

I run V$H's on mine that don't allow me to switch end caps I wish it did, cuz I'm think sharkfin or fish tail's now for the retro look... Maybe down the road after I justify new pipes....

Thumbs up Rhinehart Fishtails Update

Just to bring every one up to date i took the screaming eaagle end pieces and welded in 1/4 20 nuts to the new holes that i drilled in the end pieces. i did this after i lined up the fishtals on the rhinehart true duels.
Damn. What a sound. I had to use bigger button head screws to hold the rhinehart baffles in place but I got to say the sound is authentic old scholl fishtails with a pecular end sound. It appears to pop on decel but not from the middle of the muffler but at the end of the fishtail. You then ask how do i know this. I had a true and trusted friend drive my Ultra as i was being dragged behind him on a automotive creeper i listened intently. ; )
