I just received another email from them a few moments ago I will see if they can get an sound byte for us all.

I can assume they are louder from the last email he stated that the tors on a bonnie were only 2db louder then stock and understood why people wanted to change he said he has not heard tors on the r3t yet. as for power he is saying +20 hp versus stock I am happy with tors for the increase but if I could get even a 20db increase I would be happy. the price I was given was 495$ including shipping, now they are over in sweden so I say thats a deal.

Hi Walter, you can read here what I have told Matt Russell.
I don´t have a sound files at internet, but the bikers have been
very satisfired with pipes. I have only sold 5 or 6 pairs to
Sweden and Germany. Touring are not a big seller over her.
If you need more info Walter, please let me know.
Best regards.
Sivert Raask.

Gents, Raask IS a reputable Swedish supplier. It will quote a firm price in US$ to you, packing and shipping to YOUR destination in the US or wherever else INcluded. It will debit your credit card accordingly. Or ask for a Pay-Pal settlement or a direct inter-bank transfer (my favorite payment mode nowadays when "doing" Rocket mods across the Swiss border). But it cannot be held responsible for duty and/or local taxes upon landing, nor even be expected to forecast them.

Zero or "gift" value for customs declaration purposes only invites scrutiny on the part of US customs, BTW. Jamie

Well that was nice to send my whole email log. It's worth a try I plan on removing all the wrap and put them on strait that should do what I want with out blueing the chrome I guess with the perferated inner pipe it would function like any other pipe I just hope I will not be wasting my money even if it does blue I can always black out the pipes

We were not talking zero and the gift was what I have done in the past. We were talking a ammount that would not incurs the ammount that was quoted to others.

Remember if you take all the back pressure out you will be losing power not gaining it, at least on the bottom end. I used to spray the inside of my pipes with high-temp grill paint. about a can a pipe. Spray a good coat, let dry, repeat. Do it at the head end and it will last for a while. At least it worked on my HD's and old Triumph twins. When you get them on I am coming to O'berg to see and hear them.

My bad. I thought it was for a set of pipes not just the mufflers. Never mind.

I am not too sure what difference if any this will create be it for the good or bad but as far as I can see wither it will work or it will not, I know they have been tested but not the way I want to have them, there will be plenty of back pressure at the cross over point as with my last bike as long as I kept a cross over the pressure was fine there is no way to know exactly how this will handle.

hey by the way are you all coming up to the lowcountry cookout saturday

I have these mufflers fitted, will post up a soundbyte next coupla days

Cool Like someone already said I dont really care about more power that much. But the exhaust note on this bike is week at best.
