I am not saying that you are, just wondering how they can pull that off.

When in doubt, get the longer pipes. Like I said above they are all the same price.

ACM's price is lower if you buy them from them through their ebay account vs. their website, also. I bought my Samsons from them on ebay and it was just a little over $500 two years ago. About ~$200 cheaper than their website price.

These are also 28.5", I prefer the look at this length. A friend of mine has the 33's and his Deluxe is lowered, he has to watch his angle of approach/departure or the bottom of the tails will scrape if not careful. He couldn't care less though because he loves the look of the 33's. Awesome sound either way.

i hear ya!!! it's the only way to go... a man will go BROKE trying to fix up a bike paying dealer prices on chrome. i got my 98 in pretty rough shape, and there are deals out there if you are willing to look!!!! i got my headlight for less than $300, pipes for about that, the list goes on and on.... the bad thing.... every now and then you get burned buying online, but you win some loose some,... but i've won more!!!!

looking at a Speedo/Tach combo now for less than $100, but just don't know if it will hook right up or not.

I had the 33's on my bike for a long time and loved them. They are, IMHO, the best blend of length and function.

They rarely scraped, and my bike is all the way down on the bolt kit. That goes for two up riding in the canyons and I'm 200 n change...plus another 115 for my significant. No problems at all.

I couldn't help myself and got the 39's (it helped that I basically stole them from a friend who had to give his bike back to the bank) and things are a bit different now. Got to be a lot more careful now...not so much that it's a pain, but have to keep them in mind when I'm riding, parking, turning, ect.

The 33's will still get you a bit past the fender...and still keep your mind off of angling up steep driveways.

33's


39's...
