These pipes and many other products sold directly from Amazon are not listed by what they fit, but rather by manufacturers item number. I have been able to sneak away with a couple good deals by looking up the item number and plugging it into the search bar.

I almost bought the stainless 3 weeks ago when they were $610, ended up getting them from Revzilla instead due to the zilla cash. I have had them in my cart since then and they have been dropping $15-30 per day for the last week.

I was on the front brake hard, increasing pressure until I thought the back was going to come up. I cant say I have ever heard of cruiser riders not wanting to used the front brake.

Thanks fellas, still getting use to the new ride. I did a ton of panic brake practice when I switched over from my cruiser and thought I had a pretty good grasp on how this bike liked to be handled, clearly I let a little to much time pass since the last practice session. At the end of the day...

I would have thought the same thing. I was shocked when I saw it. 20 minutes the rest of the way to work at highway speeds, 50 minutes back at highway speeds and its like it isn't even there. My only concern is for safety and if its still gonna grip the road in a turn.

I have been riding with the Scorpions for a week now and have done a lot of experimenting. With baffles out, the thing is way to loud, even for my young ears. With both baffles in, it might honestly be quieter than stock, just a hint deeper, but gets louder over 6k. Stuck between being to...

I was on my way to work this morning and had to perform a hard stop going about 70mph. Hit the back brake to hard, the rear tire locked up and I was sliding sideways maybe 50-60 feet. I came to a stop about 2 feet from the dump truck that was stopped in the left lane of the highway(reason...

After much research, I decided against drilling out the exhaust. I was between a Leo Vince and Scorpion, ended up ordering the Scorpion. I watched every video Youtube had to offer of the two exhaust, even though I know they will of course be different in person. Pipes should be in tomorrow...

Makes a lot of sense, I was wondering how it would work out changing my foot position in relation to the shifter and brake. I think I am going to tough it out for a while longer on the stock pegs. My riding range before the ache sets in seems to be increasing. I believe its just a matter of...

Having sub par knees due to cycling has been taking its toll on my for ride over a couple hours. I am looking into aftermarket pegs and seats to try to decrease the amount my knees are bent. I found these on ebay and was wondering if anyone has tried them or another solution. My only concern...

I recently added a 2006 FZ6 to the garage along with my V-star, which was my first. Until now, I have never been able to ride to work as I leave the house around 4:30am and a V-twin roaring up the driveway would certainly inspire the neighbors to call the police. The volume, or lack there of...
