sounds awesome!!!
We have finished our first run, and have a very limited amount of these in stock right now. Looks like 4 sets of black pipes, and 1 set of silver pipes... Get em while ya can folks!
How do you folks like the Polished Stainless HHB badges on the pipes?
Hey Hugh,
Love these pipes!! Any chance you can make them with a 2:1 collector after the last bend?? Would love a set like that. Keep up the good work.
Any chance of a pro bono rephased crank & cam job? LOL

I personally have not been a fan of the 2-1 Exhausts on these motors, so I can't fully endorse a 2-1 with my name on it...

Well, let me take that back - I've seen the Dyno tests on MOST 2-1 Exhaust systems, and there is typically a great amount of power 4K or higher, but I like a nice flat torque curve for a street bike. On a race bike, yeah man - a fully tuned set of pipes is killer!
Hugh, How many more of the Blacks do you have?
Awesome thanks~!
Absolutely! MOST 2into1 systems are hi-rev HP gainers. But I do have test results I've posted here years ago that show a bike I tested gain HP and torque throughout the entire range with best performance around 4,200rpm! It took a couple of try's to get the pipe length correct but I started with pipe designs tested in the 70's so I would have a good place to start. Also I had help from someone who knows a lot more then me! That's my secret to pipe design, I surround myself with people older and wiser then myself But let me stress, I'm not claiming to be making a "bolt on miracle" with 20hp gains, just a good street 2into1Well, let me take that back - I've seen the Dyno tests on MOST 2-1 Exhaust systems, and there is typically a great amount of power 4K or higher, but I like a nice flat torque curve for a street bike.
