I had them and I really liked them. Not too loud but they barked when you got on them. I would recommend them.

I have a set on my bike now. Nice sound and look great. Lots of options with tips. One of the reasons I bought them was RC said if they yellowed they would replace for one year. I had left the stock headers on and knew it'd be running lean (I didn't change anything other than add the slip ons). No yellow or anything in 2 years. Great looking chrome. Sound great too.
I'd recommend highly.

Had my RCX pipes and headers put on before my bike left the showroom. I like them. They have a nice low rumble at highway speed and, as mentioned previously, they do bark when you roll the throttle. The finish has given me no trouble and I find that many people ask me about them. They look good, sound good and, I would give them a thumbs up after 13k miles on them.

Never had them, but I've always thought they were great looking pipes...

I put them on mine about a month after I got the bike. I had mine replaced for yellowing 3 times. Didn't even unbox the last set. I sold them last week and are waiting on my Rinehart's to be delivered today. The first set yellowed on the stock headpipes with the cat. The other two on Fuel Moto headpipes. I have a Power Vision tuner and Fuel Moto does my tunes. They always yellowed on the right side where the muffler met the headpipe. Can't complain about any thing else. Pipes sounded good and looked good except when they yellowed. Customer service was outstanding. Replaced them under warranty and paid for the return shipping.

I have RC xhaust and love them. Alittle too quiet for me at idle but just right at speed so I can still hear my radio.
