I have a chance to get some Hard Krome pipes for my VN800...problem is, they're not exactly what I want. I want the 2 3/4 straights. But the guys is making me a great deal...should I settle?

I want a nice, low rumble; nothing obnoxious. Anyone know how the kickers sound?

Well I bought the Kickers. $100. Basically the guy moved out to a retirement community and they made him take his pipes off. Then he ended up selling his 800 with the stock pipes. Now he has a sweet Triumph Classic(?)...the big one.

Anyway...I'm nervous about putting these guys on. Looks like they're not straight pipes, I see a baffle in there. I don't want to tick off the entire countryside. For $100 if they're too loud I'll take 'em off and ebay 'em.

I may put these on today...but there's a lot of good football on, so maybe not. The wife will have to be my sidekick if I do.

I had the HK 2 3/4's staggered on my 1500 when I still had it and at highway speed I couldn't hear my MP3 music. If you take it easy when riding out of the neighborhood it should be fine but when you light the wick they really get loud!!!
