First commute with Jardines- whoa!

[CvSisinthehouse]

I put the Rumblers on Friday night, Tdragger hooked me up Sunday with a tune, then had to wait 2 days for Sandy to blow by. Finally today took the Rocket to work today. Holy smokes, these pipes are earth shaking! And the extra horseys! Not that I needed them. ****! So far I am cool with the sound. My dogs will have to get used to hearing me a minute before they see me.
I painted them black first, now the hose clamps stick out like a sore thumb. I am thinking about removing the heat shields except for the ones that are attached with the screw, since the headers are black anyway.
I think the last 2 days are the first time in about 9 years that I drove to work 2 days in a row without snow on the ground. Thanks Sandy...*****.

Jardines make the Rocket even more addicting!.. lol

I'd love to hear how it sounds
Think you could put together a clip sometime?

You know....when your not out riding with that big sh!t eating grin on your face?

I'll second that request ...... have considered the Jars but that's a pretty good chunk'a change to be dropping on an unknown. I believe what I'm hearing about the power increases but since I come from the V-Twin world .... I need to hear the sound.

I love the Jars and sound would post vid but the sound does not sound right on play back but I do not have the baffels in lost some tq at top end but not enough to worry about for me if he can get good vid it would be cool

 

[tdragger]

I don't know why I didn't think of shooting video when you went for a test ride.

I have to say that they really sounded good.

I'll sure try to get the wife to record mine tomorrow and try to post a youtube video.
Now mine's not stock Jardines, but some of ya'll might like the sound, I know I do.

 

[KingOfFleece]

Don/t worry about the sound. Jars sound fantastic!
VERY mean sound and on par with the best V-Twin pipes-and better than 99% of them.

 

[CvSisinthehouse]

Ok Ok, these things are too loud, gotta get some of those Big City Thunder baffles. Stoplights are ok but just rolling along they are just too loud for my taste.

Hi there, I just added a 3 into 1 without heat shields, I found it too hot to ride, was thinking about strapping a bit of water pipe to the peg to get my leg further away,Ha Ha , ended up wrapping the closer 2 pipes with exhaust bandage, all is good now.
