I bought a Yamaha V Star 1100 recently and it came with a two into one exhaust. The pipes were black at one time but when I got the bike they were just rust. They were also obnoxiously loud, so I wanted new pipes and something that would look right on the bike as well. I got Cobra Dragsters and they look great, easy to assemble and install. The reason for four stars is these are almost as loud as the old ones and those had no baffles! I looked and you can buy so called quiet baffles, but they are near $100 each and reviews say they are hardly any quieter. I ordered some fiberglass packing, not here yet, hope it makes these livable. I don't want to piss of my neighbors and that was one of the reasons I went for new pipes.
