(with torque and hp increase listed). Most guys are looking for performance upgrades as much as aesthetics but no one ever lists them. Seems simple enough to do. Otherwise keep up the great work.
While I do agree to a certain extent, I didn't purchase the Fury for it's performance. Grant you I like to twist the throttle and get the g-force pull once in a while, but I enjoy just cruising around. (Call me old) Unless you overhaul the motor I don't think you will see that much of a increase in performance. I seen many of the Dyno results and do not see that great of a performance increase. The fuel controllers have the biggest effects of all.
I'm by no means giving you any disrespect here..
my 2 cents..

I like the slash down and the slash out.
I am sure black will be available?

Is it possible to get a pic from a rear view?
How about a sound bite?

It's been over 8 months and Fuggin has since merged with another shop..
I don't think this pipe design was ever high on their list to make..

I can't speak for the previous ownership, but I can say that our main focus is to fulfill our outstanding obligations and then proceed with new product.

The next most important item on our to-do list is to make sure that we have stock on hand of all the most current products.

With Kelly now focused on production and design we can actually get through the backlog of projects that we have.

Everyday I go to the factory I get amazed at how far we've come in a short period of time...but we still have a ways to go! I know we are excited about the new things, but we have to make sure that our feet are firmly planted on the ground first.

thanks,

Gianni

I have to agree. I like Fuggin pipes, I just bought the Viper 2's, but these look like a sport bike canister pipe, they look really out of place on a chopper styled bike. They look like they should be covered with fake carbon fiber and have a random japanese sticker on them.

Personally, I like the shortest pipes possible, I want the rear wheel and swingarm to be exposed and look like its "hangin" out there. Makes the bike look longer to me.
