I remember seeing this from the VOL board. Didn't know you were so close Bikerboy.

The pipes were done "one off" by Jim and ROn at AFT Customs in Martell, Ca. They made no templates and mocked-up directly to my VOL. They only had 4"-6" to work with and they had to relocate the rectifier and some electronics to route the crossover.

Since you live in VA, it would be difficult and costly to send your bike to AFT for the exhaust. Check the "Volusia Riders" website at volusiariders.com and there's a guy by the screen name "JHallock" that's in VA doing a simular dual pipe (but through the swingarm). He's probably near you and he can give you pointers (and price) for a setup like his.

My setup runs through the frame (in front of the swingarm) and is the only one that I know of. JHallock has the only one that runs through the swingarm.

Hope this helps.

Ken

The model's name is Samantha and she lives in the Jackson, CA area. I've been trying to meet up with her at the various shows, but we keep missing each other. She's not bad either.

I have met the other model (aftcustoms.com) named Melissa (she posed with the custom 750 Aero)... she's sweet and gorgeous! Her husband is a lucky guy!
