Does any one have a sound bite of Specialty Spares Bonneville TT Pipes?

No I dont, but

They sound much like a sportster with the straight pipes, almost every sportster you see has the custom straights on, so you know the sound.
I love these - once I get some extra cash I will be getting a pair as well...

My wife ordered me a set of specialty spares tt pipes for Christmas about the 1st of December. I still have not got them yet and all we here is a bunch of excuses. There customer service is about as bad as I have ever seen. You might want to take this into concideration when buying new pipes.

Rick,thats insane. They are a Washington company,just north of Shelton. There`s nothing intricate about their TTs,two bends and a baffle,thats it.What kind of line are they feeding you? :evil:

Sounds like nothing has changed at Specialty Spares in the last 3 years. I heard every excuse in the book from Dale and then some before he finally shipped my peashooter system six weeks after he promised and first told me they had been shipped. There are some reputable vendors selling Bonnie exhausts; however, I would not list Specialty Spares as one of them--no comparison with any others I have dealt with.

Steve,

"Company" may be a stretch for describing them--struck me more as a one person operation out of his garage. It appeared to me that the pipes were ordered from a builder after he got a few orders and then when he received them from the welder, he took them to a chrome plater.

You can always use your stock headers and buy one or two screw in baffles - it will come out almost the same that Specialty spares are offering...
