Bike Talk motorcycle forum

CD/Sam,
Sorry I did not get a chance to talk with you today. Sam thanks for the call back, I selfishly took off for a ride. I hope the new web site kicks off with no problems.
I took delivery of my custom ordered 2005 Bigdog Chopper. Unfortunately, My 2002 Harley Bagger exhaust rocks compared to my stock BD Chopper, even with the awesome 117. I have to give a big thank you to you guys for helping me decide on the "right" pipes for my bagger. Hooker true duals are the way to go for an EFI Bagger!
I request your technical assistance again. My chopper has the Baker 6 speed right side drive. The stock exhaust is from Super trapp. The bike runs fine, but is too quiet!
I am looking for options and ideas to IMPROVE the sound.
Can I replace the baffles?
what aftermarket pipes will...

does anyone knpw if i could put open primary on my 2003 low rider i really like they way they look anybody????

I have a buddy that has a 1999 Honda Valkyre.....most of the parts have been changed to Cobra. I am wondering, with the Cobra 6 into 6 drag pipes, is the baffles removeable in each of the 6 pipes or is it per side? can he change the "tone" of the bike in incriments by taking baffles out of 1 or 2 pipes on each side? He just doesn't want to run afoul of the german/European police..... I have told him not to worry about it as he has US tags, but he still has concerns. Any info on this is appriciated!! Thanks!

Hey Guys I am recently re-introduced to motorcycles and although I have ridden alot not the 100cu Vtwin that I recently purchased I have a few questions.

The starter sounds as if it is stripping when I start the bike, If I put the bike in and then back out of gear she starts right Up. Should I be starting this Bike fully choked or not and what are the blue plugs near the spark plugs that move up and down. Sorry to be such a novice.

Also I need to put in a speedo and turn signals can anyone suggest a complete kit and where I might buy. I am a computer guy and electrical work and light fab work does not freighten me unless somebody who has done this before suggests otherwise

I'm looking for input on the best exhaust. I am currently running V&H True Duals head pipes with V&H oval slip on mufflers. I like the look but not the sound. They seem to have more of a bark than a low rumble. I'm thinking of switching to the ProPipe HS 2 into 1 system. I figure that should give me a smoother exhaust note but I don't want to lose performance. Any ideas from the experts out there. I have a 2003 FLHT with 95 inch kit, SE heads, SE 211 cam, and SE 44mm carb. Thanks in Advance guys.
