Your talking about the one that looks like a Gatling gun with the spinning barrels?

I saw those way back and REALLY like them. But, I don't like that price!~ You can google them to find their website. The video/sound clips are with true duals per the guys that work there (unless they changed them in the last 2 months). I asked them to do away with the music so that we can better hear the pipes. They said they would

I looked over a metric bike this past September that had them. They were certainly an attention getter and a bunch of HD owners were checking them out. Sound wise, they seemed a little on thequiet side and not as deep as I prefer. My main concern, other than the price which was high, was the finish. The guy said he had them on only a couple of weeks and they were already a bronze color from the heat. Now to be fair, he said he had not installed a Fuel Pak until after they had colored up. Not sure if that would have prevented it or not.

All in all, I like the look but feel they would look better on a Fatboy than on a touring bike.

Ummm ... to each his own but I believe that unless the part was designed to spin or rotate it shouldn't, ie; hubcaps, exhuasts(WTF is with that anyway). It just looks ghey to me, but hey as I said to each his own.

Plus it you got them, you'd actually have to check your muffler bearings once in a while

I wonder how often they fail. It can't last too long constantly spinning can it?

I do see quite a few where one side is spinning, and the other side is not. I dont know, but I just cant see any way there would be a performance increase, and they aint the best looking thing in the world IMHO.....I just would never put something like that on my bike. I never see a set I liked....or a set that was even as clean as I like to keep my ****.
