Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

I like the Bars and pipes as well.
I always think it's funny when people take pictures of themselves and don't know they're doing it.

Yeah, sent the pipes to jet-hot. I've heard good and bad about them, but so far I'm very happy.

All that black with the red on the tank looks fantastic. Nice work.

The pipes have some sort of baffle, but I think it only helps for a little back pressure. The pipes have a very loud, low grumble that I think improved after pointing them down at the road.

As far as the seat goes, it takes about an hour before my butt gets numb. I have short legs, so it helped me out there. Overall I think the seat is great, but that's just my opinion.

How much did the jet-hot job cost on those pipes? I'm considering blacking out more of my Speedmaster and the pipes are where I would start. They probably charge more for longer pipes (mine end just past the back of the rear wheel) but it would give me a better idea of how much it might cost me.

I wanna say $350 for all of it. Measure the length and diameter of you pipes, then just give them a call. They have the measurements for the headers on file. I went with the black satin, which matches the engine perfectly.
