Anyone have a decent set of aftermarket slip on cans for a Steamer ?   :ear

I would like to try for a little more growl but don't want anything obnoxious.


Thanks

I have these Renegade brand (used) stainless steel cans with link pipes in decent condition (no scrapes or dings). The only thing I can see wrong with them is the makers plate stencil has peeled a bit, depending on how you fit them they might not be visible. They have stand offs to fit the original heat sheilds if you so desire, those will need a bit of straightening. The cans are rebuildable with stud and nut on the inlet end plate.

These came to me as part of a spares bundle I bought, I've never fitted or used them so I can't vouch for how they sound or work with stock carbs. According to the PO, the bike ran fine with them with a little popping on the overrun and were quite loud but being rebuildable type you could fit a witches hat DB killer on the inlet end if you found them too loud. Roughly 1/4 of the weight of the stock cans and would pack quite small with the removable link pipes. Let me know if you're interested.
I used to have long hair, took acid and went to hip joints. Now I long for hair, take antacid and need a new hip joint
