Took me a couple hours. The quality of the pipes is great, but not the quality of the instructions. You get 1 sheet, with two tiny black and white pics. Looks like a photocopy of a photocopy. It wouldn't be bad, but there's a few spots where I was saying, "What the hell are they talking about?"
Installing the rear headpipe is a pain. Worse is getting the shield on it. Rest of it is fairly easy.
When I finally fired it up I was kinda surprised by the sound. Not as loud as I thought it would be. Deeper tone over stock, and a nice burble to it. As soon as I revved it a little, I was "Oh, yeah!" They definately sound nice when you put a load through them.
Driving on the street, even when getting on it isn't hard on your ears. Most likely due to the length. I know they're a lot louder behind me.
I'll post some pics in a bit, and even try to get a vid up on photobucket, if I can. My recommendation to anyone thinking of these pipes is they're great, if you're wanting an upgrade to sound and looks, without having your eardrums ringing after a ride.
