Guess I will role the dice!

I would too but only if they gave me a written warranty against this issue reoccurring in the first 3 years.

Great pipe choice if they solved the past issues.

Loved the look, sound and uniquenss of these slip-ons but the chrome on the billet tips kept bubbling up and flaking off. V&H sent me replacments twice free of charge but the issue kept reoccuring so I finally gave up.
Bgill, when did you finally return them or receive your last bad tip? Just wondering if they maybe had a bad production run.
