Default Fishtails on an Ultra

So I getting ready to pull the TP off my Ultra and I am thinking with the new bars some fishtails would look pretty good. I had them on my RKC and loved them. Anyone running fishtails on their Ultra? Pics please.

Thanks

I think I might give them a try. I loved them on my RKC and since I pulled my TP today I think they will fit in just nice.

Some days I miss my old RCK, but I sure do love rolling down the road listening to Skynyrd, Springsteen, Clapton and SRV...it's a tradeoff I guess.

They're from the Silver Bullet line so they have a baffle. I'd say the sound is medium loud. Great rumble at idle, awesome roar with aggressive throttle and can hear the radio pretty well anywhere under 70mph. My one knock is that the chrome quality leaves a bit to be desired. All in all, very happy with these mufflers.
