Re: Installed new exhaust on my bike today
So, you found you some Cobras. Have you gotten the RPMs up to 5000 with them installed? That is when they really get loud.BLESSED1277 wrote: this looks an sound wonderful i am so glad i got these the bike sounds wonderful on the road

Haven't been made for several years now. Will be tough to find. May find some used on eBay or Craigslist.spiffinseattle wrote:Can you share with me where you found them? I am having trouble finding them online.

Re: Installed new exhaust on my bike today
Your pipes look good. I've had them on my bike for 10 years but put the oem pipes back on this week as the cobras were rusting badly on the outside and need to be rechromed. What I found is that I have been shifting too soon with the cobras as they sound loud. With the oem pipes I'm shifting around 4k and the bike is shifting a lot smoother. Also the last trip I took, we put 750 miles on in a day and by the time we shut down my head was ringing. Going to see how the oem pipes work before I make a decision to put them back on or not. Gotta admit that I miss the rumble though. Best of luck with yours...........Gator Mike

The cobras also take ~15lbs off your bike...too bad they don't make them anymore...still plenty of aftermamarket pipes available for many other older inline 4 bikes, but zippo for the Voyger XII
