Hi everyone
Some of you know that I haven't got my bike yet looking at 4 weeks now just done the down payment today :-)
Im thinking ahead and wanting to know what pipes would be nice with a nice deep tone? I quite like the look of drag pipes that end evenly. I've looked at youtube but cant seem to find any 2010 softtail delux that have had a pipe change. Also does anything else need to be done when putting pipes on like the ESPFI?
AlfieDelux10 I'll get footage of it when I can and upload it for ya. I'll run it too so you can hear the tone.
Hey Alfie here's footage of my ride with the V&H exhaust. Pump up the volume to hear the note.
Side mount plates are illegal if you're thinking about it. There is a kit to drop the plates to the bottom of the fender. Yeah the bike is lowered 2 inches front and rear.
I lowered the bike myself. The rear with progressive 422's (US$500, about $950 here in oz) and the front with progessive drop in springs (US$150). The rear bottom out 2up at the lowest preload setting, but when I adjusted the preload to near maximum it didnt bottom out. Anyways I dropped the bike the maximum 2 inches, you don't have to drop it that much if you don't want. The drawback with such a low bike is I can't take corners as fast anymore otherwise the footboards scrape, your lean angle is decreased. The bike handles better with these shocks than the stock ones because the ride is a bit stiffer. I had the pipes installed by the dealers as they would be able to tune the bike according to the new exhaust flow. Nothing needs to be done to the injectors.
