My New Thunderheaders

Well I put them on last night and went riding today. What a difference over those crappy drag pipes. Now it sounds the way a classic Harley should. The install was easy and they are very nice quality. And they are NOT too loud, even for an old guy like me.
I got the heat shields too for an extra $100 bucks.
