Just a quick question to you guys with the 'true duals' and have lowered you bike. Do you have an even greater problem with ground clearence in corners or is it the same? I ask this because I love the look, but my bike is lowered and drags TOO easy. I would hate to pay good money on a set of these and then find-out it drags even easier.

Mech could you possible take a side shot to show how far they go past the fender. I've never seen a good shot I have yamaha custom fenders or what ever they call them.

How about the sound of the Freedoms? I'm ready to order a set, but haven't heard many comments around the sound. Are they deep, poppy, loud? All the above

Also, which do you all like better: Slash Cut or 3.5" cans?

Sounds perfect. Just curious, what kind of pipes did you have on before going to the Freedoms? Did you buy the Freedoms from nopork and how were they to deal with?

ihad stock pipes with khrome werks slip-on mufflers. two of my riding buddies have cobra pipes and the freedoms sound way better. I did a lot of research before purchasing and i found that almost everyone loves them.

From the looks of some of the pics, I would say they would drag pretty easy on a lowered bike, especially going out a driveway. the back wheel would be in the road before the pipes cleared the curb..But that's just guessin...
