That was the pipe I wanted, but did not buy one, because I've heard so many times that they do not last long. An exhaust should last as long as the bike. Pretty much forever. The stock pipes on my '02 Vulcan 750 are still in new condition, and the bike has over 90,000 miles on it, all mine. Sportster pipes should also last forever, I'm just not crazy about the look. I'm one of the few here who actually like the stock exhaust. I love the huge pipe. I think it is very impressive. The late '90s Honda Shadow 750 ACE, and the original Yamaha RoadStar Warrior had similar pipes, and I thought they were one of the nicest looking parts of the bike. But I don't like the cat, and I would like a little more sound.
