I just installed a set of Bub 7's on my 09 Ultra Classic. I went slash up. I like the way they line up with the bags. Also last weekend I installed Fuel Moto's PCV and the auto tune. By the way I used the stock exhaust pipes.

Clean those pipes. A little chrome polish will shine the inside of the tips up nice. I have a bad habit of cleaning mine every hundred miles or so.

Dang, if I cleaned mine every hundred miles I would be cleaning them 6 or 7 times every week. No thanks, I would rather ride than polish my Bubs! I do polish them every time I wax it, once or twice a year.

I have sad sense of enjoyment.

Maybe we should give the bike pipe angle a techie nomenclature forward slash (/) and back slash (\)

slash up, slash down. So they match the line of the bags. I feel like I'm talking to my girlfriend, so critical. Thank you acchd, what I meant to say is back slash.
