Added Exhaust Tip

rolfe · 06-24-2017, 02:49 PM

Well been looking on and off for a couple years and found 2 - 95% condition used tips. There off a 1999 also X brand bike.
Almost null in sound difference but wanted to give RED a new look.

What'd You Think

Looks good I had those Valkyrie tips on my Nomad too.

Look good. Do you have a picture of the original pipes?

recumbentbob · 06-24-2017, 04:15 PM

The first pic he posted is the stock pipes.

**plumber63** · 06-24-2017, 05:20 PM

I have them on mine too.

Al they are just slip on/over tips on the stock pipes about 15" long. From a Honda Valkyrie

**BudMan** · 06-24-2017, 06:48 PM

I like the looks of them.

Gives a certain style to the bike. I have been looking/thinking about fishtails also.

They are from the Valkyrie.
I really like this style as it give RED a smoother free flowing profile.
Another benefit it throws the exhaust/heat further out.

here is the sellers photo of the tips

I had fishtail slipons on my first Nomad.

The Indian Fishtips fit, but their damn expensive....
On mine, where the muffler slips on, I use a reducer (to go from my stock exhaust header pipe to 2 1/2" custom pipes w/fishtips) to connect to a set of custom fishtip pipes....just a slide-in baffle to make legal.
Way Loud....but I'm seen and heard....I'm no louder than any of the other straight piped H-Ds, slightly louder than the Chucksters Baffles....
I'm getting my V&H Bagger Duals black chromed....

I like that sellers photo... Makes them look like something Sherm Acord was selling.
