    I will be wrapping the pipes on my knuckle bike build, and I'm using the pipes where the front one comes under the engine and is flat right at that point then attaches to the pipe coming down from the engine. My question is: has anyone wraped a pipe like this with the insulated pipe wrap, from the engine throught the slip ons, and do you have any tips? The pipes here attach slipping them together, one peice from the engine and the other down through the bottom of the engine so you have to keep them seperate until instalation. Thanks, Masiwe

    i have never wrapped pipes........personal preference......but from experience, there is not a lot of clearance between the engine and frame where the "S" pipe slips through...might not be enough room for the wrap....if ya run an over length front end you would be able to eliminate the "S" pipe and plumb around the frame.......
