Got my Martin Bros. Medustas on...yay or nay? I love the look and the sound is great! Nice and quiet like my baffled V&H 2-2 then gets so nasty when I rip it. I think the chrome looks good on there but I'd probably PC them.

After

 

I would definately PCem black, but I like the pipes bro. Do you want to sell me your V/H big radius? I also noticed you have the edge cut grips, I'm going to sell my edge cut boards. Maybe we can wheel and deal?

 

Well that just isn't true, you may have thought that, but thats not the case. I live in west Tx, also known as tornado alley and winds blow on an average of 20 to 35 mph, up to 60 mph and sand storms to which visability is reduced down to 50' at times. I can't tell ANY difference between a spoked wheel and a solid wheel riding on windy days what so ever. You would have been blown all over even if you had spoke wheels.

There is actually a thread on this somewhere here on the forum about this. But when the spokes are turning at 30+ mph they become a solid and wind does not blow through them. A softail rides better in the wind vs any bike with a fairing from side gusts.

I bring this up, not to challenge you, but to inform riders that this is a false theory.
Found it, click on envelope.

 

Don't you have some already haha? I already told CaptainMorganSOS he has dibs if I sell them and he has the money. I'm not really interested in the edge cut floorboards now but they would set it off. I'm entertaining the idea of forward controls. I'm going to run these Martin Bros. for a few weeks and see how I like them and go from there. You two will be the first to know.

I really like the pipes though and so does my butt dyno. I took the baffles out my V&H and they were obnoxious cruising around but sound great cracking the throttle. These new pipes sound quieter and refined around town but sound great like my unbaffled V&H getting on it.

 

Dave, that strip on yer rear fender is sweet...is it a custom or did u find someone to fabricate it? Any info would be appreciated.

Snow is gone and I'm ready to get my hands dirty...

Thanks!

Just in case somebody hasn't seen it yet here is my Lo with my Winter mods completed.

 

lol, I hear ya. I'm always looking for a good deal on V/H 2 into 2 replacements. These pipes fit my theme to well for me to change them for now. Mine have scratches on the bottom and I was looking for another used set.

Anyways, no biggy bro.

 

I like em.... wrap em up and paint what"s left

 

I'd say definitely PC those new pipes, they look pretty bad ***. And don't worry about saving the pipes for me, I won't have the money for them any time soon, I still have to be able to afford this trip back home in a few weeks.

But those new pipes you got give it a killer look.

 

WOW! Man that looks sweet!! Those blue flames really set off the look.
