Waving New to Me Voyager

I just picked up a 2019 Voyager. The previous owner put a lot of MODs on the bike, so I got a good deal. I'll be putting my Nomad up for sale sometime in the next month or so. The Voyager needs to be Ivanized & I plan on putting 3rd party pipes on, so I'm looking for recommendations.

Congratulations @Nomad2010

The best sounding pipes IMHO are the Freedom Performance TruDuals; pricey, but, UFDA!
A lot of us have been through the V&H slip-ons. A little too loud for *my* taste.
IVAN'izing is the best money spent on the VN1700 \./ (PERIOD)


Ride safe and Enjoy!

Previous Owner installed Heated Grips, came with a Corbin Heated Seat and a Mustang seat w/ driver backrest, under Engine and Wheels programmable LED lights, Trunk & Saddlebag racks, 12" windshield, as well as what I would consider 7500 miles.

Thanks Guys for your input. After reviewing all the responses I got from here and other sites I belong to, I decided to go with Cobra Slip-ons.

Be aware, that the COBRA etched LOGO tends to rust on the heat shields. COBRA does NOT consider this a WARRANTY issue. There have a been more that one report of this to COBRA, their response is not customer friendly. Some have had the pipes wrapped or ceramic coated (loosing / hiding the chrome). Others, like myself have replaced the pipes with something else.
Not trying to be a negative nelly. Just making sure you are aware before dropping $650 and 6 months later...


Ride safe,
Smokier

I had 10+ year old Vance & Hines that the chrome still looked great on. 35,000+ miles on them.
