Bub 7 slip-ons installed...Oh yeah!!!!

Finally broke down and get a set. Been wanting them for a while but with the price increase of Rineharts and Bubs I couldn't constitute almost 5 bills for a set of slip-ons. A few days ago I ran across a new listing on ebay for a used set first thing in the morning. It was a BIN of $290 shipped. I snagged them quick before I lost them. Took only two days to get here. Seller said they had 2000 miles on them but you would never tell. They are in excellent condition.

So I just got them installed and loaded the new map that Jamie at Fuel Moto sent me. Cranked her over and wow!!! Now that is what I am talking about. That badass deep bass thump that I love. They sound pretty much the same as the Rinehart slip-ons I had on my 08. Maybe just a tick louder. Had me grinning ear to ear. Unfortunately just as I got them installed it started to rain so no test ride tonight. Can't wait to get her out on the road and let it rip. Got a felling my gas mileage is going to suffer for a few tankfulls.

BTW in case you are wondering there is nothing wrong with the Jackpots I had installed. They have a great sound and good performance in their own right. I just like the sound of the Bubs much better.

Here is a quick pic.

The Bub 7's do rock. I have the TDs and they roar when you roll on the throttle.
If you flip them over, the slash in the pipe lines up great with the bags, which looks better IMHO.

Right on with the Bub's, and I agree, flipping them over to line them up with the bags looks great.

I did the Brouhard by Bub pipes and agree about the deep rumble..I think the 7's are a little louder though

How much of a change to the map was required for just going from one slipon to another?

Honestly don't know. I didn't look at all of the settings.

I flipped a coin on the slash up/slash down. Think I am gonna leave them slash down for a while. Kinda like 'em that way.
