Anyway, already planning mods for the 1600 and I love the looks of those HK's. Also want quick release saddlebags and a quick release windshield.
Too loud which is why I modded the baffles. It is a trick people use to give a little backpressure on drag pipes and I decided to go out on a limb and try it in my baffles. While I do think the HK 3" Big Straights are the best looking pipe on th market for the 1600, if I had to do it over again I'd get the Sideburner.
