Why heeeellll no. You dig the pipes...Rock the pipes! I never paid attention to them as the bike is just so tastefully done....But man they seem out of sorts IMO. I bet they sound so good and look so good in person that you must think anyone who questions the big pipes is crazy.....I have a big silly Rinehart on my bike. I'm certain 99.9% of the chrome 2-2 drag pipe lovers think my black 2-1 pipe is straight spazwaddick.....Like you I could give a rats fart til' they take up a collection for me to try a new one out!!

BTW...Polls are for politicians!

Crack Rocks Cammy....

Man...That just sounded wrong.

Could you imagine a set of these with some of that brass coloration placed strategically? Oh-My. See how creepy and off-beat I think!! Like angry trumpets of fire!!

+1 on not paying attention to polls. If you ask 10 people, your likely to get 11 opinions.

Example, I think Chaz's bike rocks and have thought about getting the same pipes Chaz has for performance reasons. But part of me thinks it would look too modern for the "road warrior" bike I am going to try and create. My point is everyone's opinion is based on what they want. You built a bad scoot, now go and ride the **** out of it.

It is your bike man, we all modify them to suit our own tastes, that is the beauty of owning a bike. Don't second guess your choices for your bike based on somebody else's opinion, unless you like or value that opinion. Your bike rocks!

Love the look without it.

...Edit: I like the pipes too but agree that having them color match your rocker box covers would be kick a$$!
