Moderator Posts: 9221 Re:BIG GROWL PIPES=BIG MISTAKE 2 Years, 11 Months ago   Well, they are just pipes, no shields, so they will turn color...if that doesn't bother you, have at it.. If I wanted to wrap them, it's the way I would go....   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #207761 retro_19702000 (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 21 Re:BIG GROWL PIPES=BIG MISTAKE 2 Years, 11 Months ago   Thnx FlashBack-not worried about blue-ing; had a nice set of pipes on my Sporty that blued very nice indeed so I'm not too fussed on the look. Moreso I was looking for any issues with mounting, quality (again mindful of the $$) or anything else. There's a set on eBay and I like the long, thin look of them.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #207763 Flashback (Moderator) Just the facts, Ma'am..

So I myself ordered a set of the big growl long rifles, which look like my cobras, and have a slightly bigger bore at 2 1/4 inch instead of 2". I am going to try a set of the 4" baffles in them to quiet them a bit. If I don't like them, I will return them at my expense, I will not be out much, but I think I will be satisfied, they have to look better than what I have, and as far as jetting, mine runs a tad rich anyway, so I should be ok. I will let ya know how it goes when i get them on this week. I am a bit worried about having to buy heat shields, heck they cost more than the pipes!   Logged     Last Edit: 2009/07/12 22:50 By immusicman.

I know they are not the best but hope they will do till I can afford a set of nice ones. Any idea of the jetting I should have for those? I have no idea what is correct.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #342329 Rev_Rock (User) Sola Gratia, Sola Fide, Sola Christus Senior Boarder Posts: 206 Re:BIG GROWL PIPES=BIG MISTAKE 1 Year, 3 Months ago   These are the pipes I put on mine. They look and sound great (no baffles), and cost me $235.00 including shields and shipping. http://www.kustomwerksmetric.com/productdetail.htm?productId=7687474&catalogId=1554&fpg=1   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #342355 Starkruzen (User) Starkruzen Platinum Boarder Posts: 1460 Re:BIG GROWL PIPES=BIG MISTAKE 1 Year, 3 Months ago   I got a set of Cobra slash cut slip-ons for sale if anyone is interested.

I've got my eyes on a set, yeah I know they're a bit on the less expensive side and I've enquired with Khromewerks (who are on summer break!). Now my R* is due a set of mufflers for sure-the constant weather riding is affecting the chrome badly so, a set of Long Rifles (and any advice there) or something else the Clinic can suggest? Overseas here too so go easy on the suggestions...! I noticed the ones listed on ebay now for $89 are "drag pipes with minor bemishes (scratches & minor chrome flaws)   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #342370 mkayx (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1125 Re:BIG GROWL PIPES=BIG MISTAKE 1 Year, 3 Months ago   i have had no issues with mine. with only minor discoloring. with good sound. mine mounted up with no problem.i did go with baron family jewel tips to tune the sound better.i will be change to hardchome american classic. frankallen with no disrepct i beleive your big growl pipes are the sharp shooters NOT the long rifle the difference is the sharp shooters have the downward slsh cut ends and the long rifle is a straight cut   Logged     Last Edit: 2011/02/03 06:34 By mkayx.   The administrator has disabled public write access. #342375 Crazyron1369 (User) The first scratch hurts the most.
