Pipe City is the Spot!!

Well after the fiasco with Parts411, I went over to Pipecity and was treated like a king. Kyle was great a was able to give me great price and great service for the Full Hindle system for my 929.

So my business is going to Kyle.

Moderators.. Just sharing my experience.. This is not a advertisement..

Re: Pipe City is the Spot!!

I've dealt with Pipe City also and they have some pretty good prices. 9 times out of 10 they can beat just about any price, and not by a few dollars either.

Re: Pipe City is the Spot!!

Why do people get called out when they post a favorable experience with a vendor other than a site sponsor?

I'm not trying to be a jerk here Conq, but you essentially did the same thing with me when I mentioned that I'd purchased my brake lines from a non-sponsor.

If you'd trust me vouching for them, they're a very good outfit. I've purchased from them several times (I've dealt with Ron, the proprietor IIRC).

They don't charge shipping and their selection and price is normally very competitive.... if not the least expensive you'll find. I've found it helps to call them for the best price, however.

Re: Pipe City is the Spot!!

Since when is asking for a price "calling out"? He says he got a great price, so what's wrong with asking what that price was?

I dont think he was calling him out, rather just stating that if he got a great price he should share it. Now whenever possible I try to buy from site sponsors, but if it doesnt work out for price or other reasons, I dont think twice about going elsewhere. Case in point, I just got a set of Pilot Powers shipped to me for $230... I didnt go through Cal Sportbike, partially due to the fact that I got them out of Kentucky and they will be here on Monday for me to mount for next weekend. I have posted good deals on things through outside sources and done fine...

It's just the feeling I got from the similar inquiries.

If I mistook your motive, I apologize.

Re: Pipe City is the Spot!!

Ron, Megan and Kyle @ Pipe City, kick ass! Heh heh heh, I've ordered hundreds of parts from them, since they are local and I try to support local shops.

Not only do they give good customer service and prices, they are good people. I sometimes stop at the shop and shoot the **** with them. I've always been offered lunch, by Megan whenever I stopped in. For some reason I always end up there around lunch time! All around good people there!

Like everyone says, call for the best price.

I give them my approval!

Re: Pipe City is the Spot!!

Sorry guys.. I have been out of town the last couple of days.. The price is $685 shipped that is headers and high mount mid pipe with Aluminum 20'" round can. The same system with the oval can is $715 shipped.

Now for you guys that maybe saying that you have seen this for alot cheaper in the past. Keep in mind that Hindle just recently had a HUGE PRICE INCREASE for 2005, which includes increase on prices for all make/model of motorcycles by as much as 20-25%.

The above price is after the 2005 price increase.

An example is the system that went for around $600 in '04 are around $750+ now.

I guess Hindle is no longer one of the cheaper exhausts but now hanging with alot of the other manuf.
