spydergirl is not done
I know she is installing an HMF exhaust this weekend so i can't wait to see and here it hopefully she takes video even though there is video on you tube. i also ordered the sameone as she did but what i like about it is alot lighter than stock and is only 4-6 dbs louder than stock but i also ordered the quite core which will reduce the dbs by 2-4 good price also $229.00

I am seriously interested in the HMF and want to know if there are any issues with the installation of it. I am tired of having to fix the heat shields on the Hindle. They are back to rattling again and driving me nuts.

I know what you mean i bought the hindle cause i like the smaller size and it sounded good but that louder noise gets old fast and my heatshield is off of it still nicely painted i had larger rivets in it but that did not last long so i figured find something mild and lighter and thats what i found.

I put the HMF pipe on last week. I got it on Ebay for 229.00 and free shipping. The best thing about it was they sent me a carbon fiber pipe instead of the polished aluminum that I ordered. This was a hundred dollar mistake on there part. YEE HAA !!! I will take it. Great pipe. Way louder, (which I wanted for safety and a little bit of head turning attention) and more of a growl than the stock sewing machine sound from the oversized heavy stock one. Only issue was mine was slightly ovaled where you connect it to the spyder pipe so I took it to a muffler shop and they made it round again (no charge). Other than that issue you will need to put the holding clamp (to the frame) on the outside instead of the inside (like the stock one is) or it will hit the frame. Awsome pipe. It is 103 decibals. I saw the video on Utube about that hindle pipe heat shield rattle. I would flip out and go nuts to that company !!! You will like the HMF if you get one, I sure do.

I put the HMF on Friday night and did two rides over the weekend with it on. I like the sound of it, very similar to the Hindle as far as volume. The rattling of the heat shield on the Hindle was most annoying. The hubby put the Hindle on his Spyder instead. So far I am happy with the purchase of the HMF. The throttle response seems to be a little better too, but that could be my imagination.
For the price and the quality, the HMF seems to be a winner in my book.

Thanks for all of the info on the HMF pipe. I am going to redo the rivets on my Hindle one more time, I don't think I will be able to do it anymore after that anyway, and then will likely switch it out.
Nice job on the pin striping as well.

I need to get some more pics with the HMF pipe installed. I am very happy with the sound.
I want to make the footpeg stays and handlebar steering cover match the finish of the HMF pipe to finish the look. I also need to get my hitch powder coated black and get a black rear wheel.
And yes, I will get a video but it sounds a lot like the Hindle IMHO.

I like a fool thought i was feeling better and went and installed my hmf exhaust i did take video but i need to be back in bed. After watching several videos of the pipe it sounds louder than stock more throaty than the hindle i don't know if it is louder than the hindle but video it seems way off to compared what it really sounds like.

Her hindle is now my hindle and the rivets are coming loose. What did you do to correct this?

Pinstriping looks great! Is it painted or adhesive strips?

I drilled them out and used a slightly larger rivet. It is time to do it once again, and then I may not be able to do it anymore. Someone else on here actually used a bolt and some nuts, but I didn't really want to go that route yet.

SpyderGirl...
Just an Olphart here... I learned my lesson after fooling around with 2-stroke pipes on my snowmobiles... If you leave the exhaust end of the bike alone you won't have nearly as much time wasted tinkering...
