1979 gl1000 pipes
« on: March 18, 2012, 07:24:13 PM »
Hey all, just looking to put 2 new slip pipes on my goldwing. Anyone know what ones would bolt and light right up? I heard some harley pipes work to slip right on??
Thanks

A lot of folks run Harley pipes now.  Apparently they're not too expensive and sound really good when bolted on.

Yeah, i think a shorter pipe would make the look of the bike way better, and have a great sound too!
