They're tig'd up pretty solid, I doubt they're gonna crack. No different than street sweepers or shorty pipes on a harley, and none of the pipes have fallen off my harleys.

Finally a video of the pipes, doesn't quite do the sound justice - it's a big deeper and bassier than in the video. Didn't hit the throttle as it would've cut out the mic!

When you hit the throttle, it roars like a beast, and subsequently glitches my camera all to hell.

just save a copy of the original play with a copy take it for test run or two get somebody to watch for when you get fuel smoke if it seem rich only in certain areas then just lean it of a bit, but to be honest I can't see how any tune that is out there could be rich with THOSE PIPES

hey!! I just had a thought you could make money with them pipes you could set up a stall and sell toasted Marshmellows they would come to see what the noise was then see the blue flame toasting the Mellows, or you could use it to mark out a running track lines... just ride around a leave a scorch line in the grass
