If you are going to mount them as in the picture above be prepaired to drag them through the turns.If you like turns of course at a descent speed. They do look nice. I had my mufflers mounted like that,but a different brand,and I found that I could drag them pretty easily. I had pipes made with a slight bend upwards and mounted them back by the back of the bike with an upsweep. I have not dragged them yet.
