First the earth cooled...then I won the Muzzy Slip-On pipe at EOM in Boone, NC.
First Muzzy is a great crew. Not only did they donate the item to the forum, the EXCHANGED it for the 2006 Titanium model. (I did offer, and pay the difference in price from the one's donated to the ones I wanted).
The pipes were on hold for a while -- there was some issue with a bracket (unsure of what it was) specific to the 2006 model. Although I've read people putting their ''03-'05 pipes on their '06 bikes -- I waited patiently.
Muzzy has a different set of part numbers for the 2006.
SO after all that, the pipes showed up yesterday!!!!!!!!!!!! Hurray.....
One thing that sucks, and I mean sucks bad -- there is ZERO mention of needing new exhaust gaskets.... (see other post) SO -- after ordering a pair of gaskets ($12.65 each) -- they will be here next Tuesday. I got the original gaskets out of the OEM muffler (and yes it's tricky -- send SASE plus $9.95 and I'll tell you how I did it with a 2" piece of PVC, some wire, some elbow grease, and a ball pein hammer! )
Screw all that -- the pipes sound great if you want a louder sound, and look even better! Especially on the Cerulean Silver. The major plus for me?? The Ti color match to the silver trim pieces looks really hot. Fit and finish are great, engineering and clearance is great also
Bottom line--- all winners -- me, Muzzy, the forum, and now you win free info
Right Side with and without Bags:
Rear with and without bags:
Detail of the centerstand bracket on the mid-section pipe (my hand is holding the center-stand away for better viewing)
