Introducing the newest fish in the school of Samson's Fishtails is the Longtail, which retains the classic look of the Samson Fishtail but with a longer tail on the bottom to give an all-new look. You can choose the look you want for your motorcycle. Samson offers a short- and long-muffler version of the Longtail. Part no. S-432 is the short muffler, and S-433 is the long muffler. The entire head pipe is covered by a 220-degree heat shield that eliminates discoloration. The mufflers have integrated baffles that improve performance and sound. All Samson pipes come with a full one-year warranty.
The newest Martin Bros. exhaust pipe is showing all of its tricks at MC Advantages. "Trixstas" are the first right-side-drive pipe from Martin Bros. to have optional heat shields. These mandrel-bent pipes are finished with the highest-quality chrome layered over .065-inch-thick steel. The aggressively bent pipes are available in chrome, chrome with black ceramic internal coating, two-tone chrome/black ceramic exterior, and all-black ceramic exterior. For increased performance, the pipes are stepped to a larger diameter, from 1.75 to 2 inches.
Havoc Industries is proud to introduce its line of proven performance pipes. Each design is stepped and tuned to give a rich, full sound, eliminating that midrange "dead spot." All pipes and fixtures are built for a perfect fit every time. The flanges are machined, not rolled, and 16- and 14-gauge steel tubing guarantees a strong completed unit. All pipes are available in black raw or triple-plate chrome.
Make bystanders look to the sky for a storm when you ride by with True Dual Thunder pipes from Rich Products. Equipped with individual pipes for each cylinder and featuring ThunderCones on each side to give true Thunderheader sound and performance, these pipes are designed to run with H-D's fuel-injection system. Fuel-injection maps are available for most engine combinations using the True Dual Thunder exhaust system. True Dual Thunder pipes outperform the stock exhaust by 10 horsepower. They are finished in show chrome and are complete with heat shields, mounting hardware, and instructions.
Now available is D&D Performance Exhaust's Torian exhaust system, which is mounted on the entire line of Hardbikes motorcycles. The two-into-one Torian pipes are manufactured in a slash-cut or straight-cut design. They improve power and torque by as much as 12 additional horses and play the sweet-stroking Harley rumble. Each pipe is encased in a full-wrap heat shield that keeps all discoloration from view. The two-into-one pipes are torture-tested on D&D's in-house super-flow eddy-current ram-air dynamometer.
