I had them. Thought they looked good. But arent going give you the best performance. Also I felt like the sound was a bit shallow. I was much happier when I switched to side shots.

Aren't those the Big Shots? I thought the Short Shots were much shorter. Could be an optical illusion.

Those are big shots. The pipes on the bike in the pic are short shots.

personally i would never run those pipes, they just kill the TQ numbers and for me are way to loud... do not get me wrong i dig the look! but not the loss of power... i have heard good things about the side shots power chamber though... but i have never run them

Well I can only go by what the guy said and he said they were vance and hines short shots. But he was kinda new to bikes period. They are stamped 0395FC and the top pipe is from the end to the start of bend 23 inches and the lower pipe is from end to start of bend 30 inches. Didnt measure actual pipe because I was to lazy to pull shields off but the shield was just under 2 1/2 across.
So if they are Big shots, are they a better pipe?
Thanks guys!

Hey powder pro, thanks and here is my shovel I built that was 100% powdered with gold flake in the green and some gold leafing. Thought you would like the concept.
