    She doesn't say a whole lot, but she will be able to handle it all. I think that I may have been able to stop the bleeding a little of my bike fund so I may still be able to purchase my new bike. Just may not be able to put all of the accessories on it right away...

    Construction season done for you?

    By the Way, one of the biggest perks of having these Basanni's is that it will be able easier to do some work on the carb side of the bike because the pipes will be tucked in. My other pipes made it a little difficult...:D

    They bolted up just fine. I didn't tighten anything down yet though as I am waiting for the flange nuts that I ordered to arrive. I am pumped to fire her up and go for a ride...

    Actually, you can hardly hear these pipes in comparison to my other pipes. I have them on completely now and have taken them out for a spin... I think that I may pull the baffles out and put a set of BCT baffles in... :D

    A) Looks great, love the pro street and they are louder than you think
    just ask anyone next to you when you whack it open
    b) leave the baffles alone they are designed for the pipe
    and the stepped headed
    c) BCT baffles won't fit, Nobody makes a baffle that
    will fit that but Bassani..

    They sound almost as loud as my $139 Paughco drag pipes - and mine are baffled - Ha-ha! I know what Bassini's are, Johnny, just pulling your leg! Those pipes are very nice - short and low and they growl!

    BCT baffles would fit because they make a baffle for that diameter pipe, but I will leave it anyway. Last night cam home from the bar with a buddy that rides a Harley and we fired Whip up. Pissed the neighbors off... OOPPSS

    I have already gotten the attention of my neighbors and I haven't even gotten the Beast outside yet! Guy 2 blocks away said he heard me revving it up a few weeks ago. Had the windows open in the shop. I guess I'm "the scourge of the neighborhood" now! Wait'll they hear it when I get it outside! I can't wait!!

    And yes, they'll just have to get over it. Ooops.:D

    I do too. I really do like these pipes. I hope that I never get tired of them. It just may be that my riding season is officially over, we got snow yesterday but they are saying 50* weather at the then end of the week. I hope that is the case, I want to go riding!!!!:rant:

    We got 62F today!!!!! Did about 100 miles and wound up at the ocean (Atlantic) to a impromptu car show. I should have taken pics. There was a Cheetah there! Most of the guys probably never heard of the Cheetah.

    We got ice here today but the sun is trying to come out. Think I'll just watch the last NASCAR race at Homestead Floiday. :D
