She may be louder……..
Yep....maybe even louder than hubbies chopper! Ha! I rode my bike back from the dealer. They put on my fishtail straight pipes and did the rejetting to accomodate them. SSsoooooooooooooooooo AWESOME! I can't believe how good Scarlet sounds. I said….. now SHE is talking. We were inside the dealer paying the bill and the parts guy said he would go start my bike to warm it up. It flittered through my brain "No........I want to start her 1st!" but I didn't say anything. I could hear the pipes all the way inside. I am so jumping up and down happy! I could barely keep the grin off my face as Rich and I and the shop guys were checking it out. I wanted to hug the "Triumph" guy that did it. I should have. On the way home............man what a difference! It added almost an additional 10 horse power. I told Rich at a light........."I feel like I have my muscle car". Oh.......and under an over pass I revved it (well Rich always does)…..it was soooooooooo freakin’ loud…….what a rumble! The fishtails look SO HOT! There is a little bit of popping....but I am OK with that. ~*~ Painted Lady

Looks very sporty and very loud.


A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. Herm Albright (1876 - 1944)

Pipes look GREAT!

Did they baffle them at all?

If you can sometime, try to record a sound bite of them. I woudl love to hear if there is a different sound between your style of fistails and mine.

Nope........no baffle at all. I was mentioning to my daughter about recording the sound and putting it on the board. I would love for you all to hear it. I called my son (12 1/2) and revved it over the phone for him. He was shocked at the sound and thought it was cool. ~*~ Painted Lady
