As of right now, it took me less than half an hour to pull the stock pipes off with four key bolts. Sliding on the new ones took a little more time for me. The wrong bolt was packaged with the item to bolt the regulator bracket on the frame. I called Cobra and they were quick to answer and resolve the problem.

Now the Bike sounds like it looks and is quiet enough in the neighborhood for me to keep my friends. I didn't want TOO LOUD, and I did want throat and the sound that accompanies twisitng the throttle. No more overly tame VTX1800 Review Details  7 out of 7 members found this review helpful.

My VTX has an appropriate voice now (no more sneaking up on birds sitting in the road). There is noticably more power without needing to install anything else. The sound goes from a healthy (not obnoxious) rumble while idling to an exhilarating roar while accelerating. Review Details  3 out of 3 members found this review helpful.

Contacted Honda Direct Line where I purchased, they said not our problem and i could buy another set. Cobra said to contact the company I got them from. Had to cut it and force it back. Poor customer service from both companies I feel. They do sound good though. Review Details  2 out of 2 members found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No
