Default Cobra Powerport Dual Headpipe

If anyone is looking at this headpipe for their 2010-12 Ultra, here is my Saturday.

I think the quality is as good as my V&H Power Duals were. I really like the look of the true dual look but has a cross over chamber from front and rear pipe.

There are three main pieces; front headpipe, rear headpipe and the collector/crossover/powerport. The crossover is a full size tube, no flat tube like stock.

I think they were the easiest headpipe I have installed in the last few years. I am impressed with the fit and finish of the heat shields. My SE mufflers went on easy. I do notice more sound coming from the left muffler than with the stock even with the CAT removed or the V&H Power Duals.

The powerport chamber that connects the front and rear pipes is about 1"X3" and should help over a true dual for torque.

I attached a few shots of the kit and the installed look. I am pretty happy with the look and sound. Not enough miles to get a good feel as to any noticeable power loss or gains, but I think they will be a keeper.

I noticed the heat shield on the left side going under the bike still doesn't go all the way under, covering the pipe. I don't get that. The V&H's are perfect, except for that spot.

Not that it matters to me, but....

In this era of rampant off-shore out-sourcing of everything from horse shoes to harmonicas, nearly every product we make is created, developed, and manufactured right here in the USA. Got a problem or a question about any Cobra product? Call us and you will witness a modern miracle--a live Cobra representative will answer the phone.

This ultra-modern, more than 85,000 square-foot complex in Yorba Linda, California is home base for the Cobra team. Inside is a marvelous blend of state-of-the-art manufacturing technology and hands-on craftsmanship. In fact, some of the machines and procedures used to make your clutch cover, floor boards, sissy bar or exhaust system can range from huge multi-ton presses, computer-driven milling, laser cutting systems to good old hand-forming. And it's all done with a trained eye, the latest in computer-controlled machines and when needed, even a very big hammer.

This thread was for people that may interested in the exhaust system.
