I built the pipes myself...

How did they sound? potato patato potato potato. The little Honda fires the same the V twins. The bike was loud, the wife claims she could hear me 1/4 mile away when I throttled up.

I built the pipes out of 1-1/2 electrical conduit. Bent the conduit into a full 90 degree bend and cut through the bend to give me the rounded down tips. I installed a 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 exhaust adapter and welded it. Using a deburring wheel
polished down the weld smooth. This fit the original header pipes to a "T"

I inverted the passenger foot peg mounts and welded them on to give me supports at one original mount point for the mufflers.

Finally, I buffed the steel to a chrome like shine with my gold rouge.
