I have the samson 33 straight fishtails.


IMO the only fishtails that look right are the straight pipes on a classic looking bike.

OK that looks cool an all but how the hell do you guys park those things without bending the crap out of them? I always back my bike up to the curb seems to me that would destroy at least one of those pipes in short order.

Those really high curbs may hit it. But usually no. What has happened is I back in with the wife off. Then she gets on while they are still over curb. But that's it.

People I'm with seem to think it is going to happen more than it does.
