I've seen 6'5" 350 pound grown men faint while in the presence of Willy G.


(Did they offer you membership in "The Uglies"?)

I got a pair of tune-able Hookers. I had 76K miles on the old ones and the sound was creepy.

Then, my buddy, the puke that he is, tells me my pipes are the worst sounding pipes he ever heard on a Harley!

So with $80 of gift certs from bike night raffles, 10% hog discount, a slim piece of plastic, and free inst. I'm in! I closed the left pipe's baffle all the way and opened the right 100%. It's a false 2-into-1, but the torque increase was easy to feel and the sound is a low throaty rumble, the kind that sets off car alarms at 50 ft. :-)

I need to rejet my carb as I was jetted out for zero back pressure and also adjust the timing in the rear jug. I did lose a bit of crispness in the throttle, so I need to get that back. :-)

Then a dyno run and All your bikeweeks are belong to us!

How's your ride?
