Well, pipes now on my baby. Sounds mean. A few backfires. Going to see if it settles. If not might need a slight tune on the bike. Will post pics and vid (if I can) shortly.
Will let you know when I am off Zombie, so we can meet up so you can check them out up close and personal.

OK, lets see if this works OK. This is what the pipes sounded and looked like this morning. After a little love and affection from the guys at Norwest, this is what they grew up into. Zombie I am off on the weekend. I should be out your way on Saturday. Finish work at 0600hrs and hoping to meet up with the Ulysses guys at Dural (deli on Old Northern Rd) that morning. I will let you know if I am still conscious after a night shift.

Hi Garrett I've got the Vance & Hines short shots on my 2010 VT400. I installed them myself and it was very easy to do with no major worries. They are crazy loud with the optional quiet baffles so I'm sure they will certainly be insanely loud without the quiet baffles. I'll include my youtube clip of them installed on my VT400 WITH the optional quiet baffles installed. I wrapped mine in Black exhaust tape but that's only because I like the old skool look. This is my video WITH the optional quiet baffles installed. The bike sounds sweet as when idling but it's loud at speed (any speed lol) I got the stock O2 sensor holes drilled into the pipes so I could use the O2 sensors but you can use O2 eliminators if you want. If you do get the O2 holes drilled out and a nut welded in you will need to extend the wiring on the top pipes O2 sensor wires. You will also need to work out where to place the O2 sensors as there is not a lot of room to work with. I can take a close up photo of my O2 sensor placement if that helps?? Lastly, although your Ebay price is good you can certainly get a better deal/price in Australia and have piece of mind with 'local' service if required. I got a price from an online Aussie supplier and my local bike shop 15min from me matched the price. Luckily, for me because the pipes came with the wrong baffles so the local shop promptly got onto V&H and 1 week later the correct baffles. I reckon that if this happened overseas/online/Ebay It would be a lot harder and even more expensive to get sorted...PLUS, it's always good to support your local bike shop. Mine with the quiet baffles ordered in Australia was $500 even!!! not bad and that was only a few months ago. My Aussie price, Aussie supplied and sent to Tas. V&H Short shots $450 V&H optiona quiet baffles $50 Welding of the O2 bung $100 Extending O2 wire (free.. just needed 1 foot of electrical cable, solder, cable heatshrink & soldering iron) Best listened to LOUD!!! lol Cheers, Pete Hey mate is there any chance you could send me a part number for your pipes , I wanted to get them but vance and Heins won't recommend any , claiming they won't fit but if you could send me the part number I will go ahead and order them cause I know they'll fit

Hi there. New to this game. Have purchased a 2012 VT400 and would like to know what V&H Cruiser Pipes will fit??? Can you help. Thanks Ray, Are they a straight bolt on? I would option them with the quiter baffles, gives them more of a deep thump than a crack Hi run41t, If you are talking about the V&H cruiser pipes bolting straight on to vt400 yes they do as long as you buy ones that fit vt750 aero, any part that fits a vt750 aero will fit the vt400 as you will find if you search for vt400 parts {USA} you probably won't find any. by the way i have these pipes on mine they are great, hope this is of some help. if you have anymore ? ask. cheers, spinal.

[/quo Just about all of them mate. The Cruzers I think are the best. The short shots look great, but are Damned loud. There is long shots as well but don't look as good on the Shadow. Can get baffles for all of them. You will need 02 sensor eliminator to fool the computer on board.
