Just to echo what others have said, regarding the looks . I'm with Tug regarding the color and black combination on your bike also.

I haven't been a fan of the black pipes but on your blue bike it just seems to work... Your bike looks awesome with those pipes!

Re:Pipes 10 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
Got my test ride in this morning. Pipes sound real good. They are louder but not obnoxious (at least to me). You can really hear the difference under acceleration but at a steady cruise they are not a whole lot louder than my old slip ons. I'm happy with them and I guess that's all that matters. Might have even gained a little performance but I might be imagining that. They sound faster anyway. Thanks again for all the compliments.

Pipes look good man. Wonder why no one else is rocking the chrome ring tips though?

Also I gotta wonder, Both of you guys have got the pipes that end at the rear axle, I've got the ones that are a bit longer and end at the rear tire. Anyone know if there is much of a difference between the two? Is that the difference between the drag pros and the drag straights?

Yes


Is there much difference in sound between the two?

Also, I cant seem to find the ones I have on roadburners web site. Does anyone else have these longer versions?
