Had two people yell " nice bike " . Getting ready to wash the road grime off now !!!

    Sat for about an hour at Corbin, pricing the new smuggler and waiting for the rain to slack up...man the B.S. about why the seats are so hard !!!! LMAO !!! stopped by Ultimate....seat is about a month out.......

    If I had to come up with a negative about the pipes I guess it would be, why did they not weld all three pipes on the collector....one is welded and the other two are on with clamps??? I assume for chroming.? I say they are worth it, depends on disposal income it they are worth it to you.....
    You pretty much nailed it on that. We originally had all 3 welded together, but it was impossible to get in the crevice and polish the metal before plating. So it was either have one pipe install with a slip joint, or have some crappy looking plating on the inside.

    Gradual acceleration sound level = "mmmmmmmmmMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmm,,,"

    (Only try the humming/hands over ears trick when no ones looking! LOL!)

    The MagnaFlow muff's the wife has on her '11 V-6 Mustang drone REAL bad when taking off 'normal/gently' from a stop,,, Make the dayum floorboards / console vibrate till she gets it above 2k+ rpm,, Quiets down to 'normal' MagnaFlow levels after that:

    "mMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm,,,,"

    (She thinks the drone sounds like 'power', )

    As long as she's happy, and I don't have to drive it,,,,
    Yep. And some people are more sensitive to drone than others. It also depends on how you ride your bike. Do you get on the gas hard and rev it, or do you do nice easy/slow shifts? People who do the slow revving tend to be bothered by drone more than those who rev the bike and shift at higher RPM's, because if there is a spot in the RPM range that just totally sucks, they are stuck in that area longer....and then you have a headache

    I did want a set of 626 pipes but after all the talk of the drone, i'm a little worried. A lot of my riding is in the range of 60 mph. i do want a better sound but not at the expense of losing my better half as a rider. I'm on the edge.

    Cobra USA, why don't you offer a quiet baffle like you do for some of your other pipes? By the way, they are the nicest looking pipes made.

    Cobra Slip-Ons F6B

    The Cobra slip-ons are a great addition to the F6B. They look and sound awesome and will definitely bring out more of the bikes true potential. A K&N Air Filter and a set of Torq Loopz will bring it even closer to max muscle power. The Torq Loopz are not legal for road use, but are one of the easiest ways to improve power output.

    Love my Cobras but...

    has anyone removed the baffles on the Cobra 6-2-6 exhaust? I love the look and improved sound but I wonder if there is more to be had from these beauties. Btw, I think they are lighter than the OEM exhausts, but I haven't measured this.

    Thanks,
