Any thoughts, opinions or obuse on the attached exhaust would be considered.

I just saw these & thought they would look really cool & could use them for special occasions

Aussie,

Must have missed the first post.  Without trying to "dis" anyone, IMO pipes like those don't really look all that "cool", and they definitely don't help the performance of the bike.  Reminds me a little of the short individual pipes (maybe 12 - 18 inches long, with a curve from the exhaust port down to the frame rail, and a slash cut tip) that have been real common on customs this past year.  Look cool to some folks, but are useless on a bike you intend to actually ride.  If the purpose is to make a lot of noise and to generate big backfires, these will probably work fine.

Agree with GRC.  The short pipes don't appeal and are even harder to tune right.  I guess they might be good for high RPM runs at the track but not for every day riding.  I much perfer the 2 into 1 Thunderheaders for sound and perfomance 8-)

Jerry, the front pipe still about 30 inches long & the rear is a few inches longer

Aussie,

I know.  I just mentioned that they [highlight]reminded[/highlight] me of those short pipes.  You know, the more I look at them they also remind me of the pipes on the SE drag bikes.  Either way, not my cup of tea.

They look ok on a fatboy but the rear pipe is too short for my liking

Those pipes look like they would wake someone up in the Penthouse of a high-rise apartment. What does that bike sound like, and how often does it set off car alarms? ;) Heh, those pipes might even set off a motion detector alarm in a residence (I can picture the glass rattling, as it rides by). I don't think I would be to found of riding behind that bike.

BTW that's a nice looking SE Fatboy w/wide tire kit on it. [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

Do you have anymore pictures of that bike? I'm interested in the side shot of the rear wheel etc.
