Well it's been a while since I had a bike. When I did everything was choked up from the factory.
Yeh, my understanding is the pipes are now tuned to sound good, but not strait through. I prefer strait pipes. Had them on my last three. One 883, and ironhead 1000 sportster and twin cam softail. No bikes for me anymore.
I had an 883 a long time ago, would like to get a bigger bike but everything is overpriced now. I only bought used bikes and mostly in the winter, when prices drop through the floor.
Always used, never new. The new bikes suck anyway. Bikes are cheap here in California. Softails, 7-8k, sometimes less. Sportsters, 4,5,6k. Sometimes 3k. My last one was $1800. There’s so many bikes on Sacramento Craigslist it’s retarded.
I like the smaller bikes with a bigger motor like a 88inch SuperGlide. That’s what I would do if I ever did it again. I really don’t care to ride anymore.
