Default Hard Krome question

I would call Hard Krome direct and ask them to make sure,, if they cannot tell you then maybe you will find someone who has tried them. But I would think that they would've tried that pipe to make sure it fits before designing a new one. Maybe backpressure may have something to do with it as well.

Hi and Welcome! There are some guys that have had great success bolting up C50 pipes to M50's with no problems. Check the M50 forum. One of the guys has pics.

I agree with stp though. Call the manufacturer first. But so far, the street has found out before the factories that some parts on the cees and emms are interchangeable.

I have V&H straight shots on my M50 that were listed for a C50. They fit perfectly.

Do they ever! Man those pipes look good on your bike! I'm still holding out for a decent 2-into-1 pipe for the M50, but I'm getting impatient. Those Vance and Hines look awesome!

How does it run? Better? Worse? Or no noticeable difference?

It runs fine. I still have a PC3 on order because I was impressed how well it worked on my last bike. In my opinion do I feel you need it? No I don't but I'm sure it will be a improvement.

Default HK 3" Staggers

hard-krome-question-boulevard.jpgThey fit fine dude.....just watch the mounting bracket, it hits the swingarm brace if you do not space it out of champher the bottom edge to gain clearance.
