    Those seem like they really mount up nice.

    Nice looking exhuast. Does it sound any better than the original 700 exhuast.

    i did, those hondas were before..
    they both sound good, honestly ive never heard a maxim 700 with stock muffers before.. but the honda were raspy, with a cackle ish, and the harleys are deep... i put the harleys on at the end of the year tho, so i cant tell ya if they run lean, the hondas mount on with no modification whatsoever, but the sportster muffelrs were sorta a pain

    My new Fishtails connected to my homemade exhaust. I love them. Sound great, and to me couldn't look any better.

    I used the standard headers and collecter then got a local guy to fabricate up a couple of stainless mufflers with straight through perforated inner pipes... Sounds mean.
