Yes, tons of us. Low frequency rumble with stock inserts. I love them. I would like them to be about 4" shorter though. I think often that someone should make 1/2" tips to replace the large black ones.

Have them on mine and happy with them. I did wrap the header near my leg to help with the heat a bit. Took a bit of finesse to get the chrome shield on but pleased I made the effort. The length for me is great with my bags.

Have them love them great sound. They will get loud if you crack the throttle which I will do in city traffic here in Indy. Only negative is my driveway is on a steep slant where it meets the road I drag unless I come out on an angle and speed bumps can sometimes be a problem partly my fault since I did lower bike with the flip & grind.

Shores ,yours seems longer than the others I've seen. I would like the to be no longer than the rear fender. Are all the models that long ?

Yes, at least the newer 4" Racing are. There is an older style, maybe a 3".

Homerk, I'm in no position to, nor do I want to, comment on how long Shores is nor how many you have seen, but this is a shot of my FP 4" Duals on a '01 1600 for a comparison of how far past the fender they stick out.
