How do you like the sound of the Cobra slip-on??
Tell me in the comments!
Loving it compared to the sewing machine... Cobra may be the best bang for the buck🤔
I love it I just got the same for my v star 1300 and it sounds awesome. Do u know if there’s any baffle inside that needs replacing over time like done exhausts or just put it on and run it?
Want to sell your original muffler?
Sounds great!!
I thought so too!
Love from DeKalb Mississippi USA 🇺🇸
Thanks for watching 🤘 ride safe out there!
holy smokes that sounds amazing
Best bang for your buck if you ask me!!
Got one to sounds great💥💥💥
Awesome 👍 ride safe and thanks for watching
dang that sounds good 🤤
Hell yeah 🤘 it's a shame they don't make the Vstar 1300 anymore 😔
Sounds great! Nice rumble! Next week's installment? The bottom blade attachment to mow the neighbor's lawn.
Ha! I wish. Watching him mow was painful
Much nicer than the wheezing 2HP-air-compressor-sounding stock pipes! When you have the factory hard bags, you're stuck with a 2-1 exhaust, and the Cobra is the best economical slip-on. Lot of 1300 riders running them. My V Star didn't come with hard bags so I was able to put Vance & Hines Big Shots (2-1-2, but discontinued) on mine and the tone is epic...thumpy and low, and they noticeably increased power and throttle response. Now he just needs a CAI and Ivan's flash, and that thing will be a reliable rocket (0-60 in 4 seconds).
Those big shot pipes like sick!! I'm not sure if my buddy is going to install the Ivan tune or not. He may upgrade to a different bike completely! It's a shame they don't make the Stratoliner or Raider anymore
How much does the Ivan's give it?
@@Larrs depends on the mods, but anywhere from a couple HP to 13.5 and up to 12 lb/ft of torque.
@@noahmercy-mann4323 holy wow ok thx
Not bad for a slip on my 1300 has the long shot pipes they soundstage a bit better I’m glad the previous owner swapped them out but it sounds pretty good
Yeah we went with the cheapest slip-on we could get 😁
That sounds good! makes me want to put on different pipes on my triumph, maybe some cocktail shakers?
The cocktail shakers are my favorite 👌 whether I'm making a drink or riding motorcycles 🏍
Sounds better than mine with the baffle drilled out mine sounds like an old Chevrolet with straight pipes
I love the sound of a straight piped Chevy!! Lol
Both my Boys are all grown up 😭
You're next
That sounds damn nice honestly... I'm wondering if its the same slip-on for the 15' Stryker... I was looking into it recently but haven't a decent-sounding video yet...
I think it might be the same one for the Stryker. I agree it's hard to find a good exhaust vid on these bikes. We chose this slip on cause it was cheap. I really wanted to get a 2 into 1 header kit lol
@@NicePantsLance yeah, thats pretty much where I stand on this one also... price. Was aoming at a V&H but thats almost $1100 shipped in Canada. A little steep IMO.
2 into 1 exhausts are hard to find under $800 for most bikes honestly. That is definitely a steep price
@@NicePantsLance Finally got it done... huge difference in sound and performance! Bike feels like it's ready to rip at any moment... more torque and just feels more responsive. Sorry about the audio, it aint perfect but this should give you a good idea of the difference in sound!
thanks for the info and video brother!

Sounds really nice. What handle bars are on that bike are those 10” or 12” and did you need new wires. Thanks
They are the stock bars tilted forward!
Thanks man, will try that.
Did your pipe come with a baffle in it? Or is there any kind of baffle to replace over time?
Yes it did! Honestly i dont think the baffles would have to get replaced
How do I like the sound of the Cobra slip ons? Well to be honest, it is a subjective question that I can only answer with, it is louder. Do I like the sound? That would depend on how it does on long highway miles. I do not know if I would get a headache from the frequencies at higher rpm for long periods or not. As for short in town riding though, the slip ons do sound more aggressive than the stock exhaust. If you like them, that is what counts, as for the neighbors, probably not if you were to rev bomb at five in the morning.
I haven't spent too much time with it, but it doesn't dig into my ears like my Speed Twin so it's perfect for him
Instead of having a one exit muffler can you have two? I bought these cobra slip ons but they're dual muffler so now i don't even know if i can install or bought the wrong item
You can definitely run 2 mufflers or a true dual exhaust if you want. Just gotta make sure the slip on you bought is specific to your bike 👍
If or when you get a commander programmer don't wait for the fuel pump to cycle as it won't start.. Sart the bike once you turn the key
I'll keep that in mind if I get a Power Commander!
sounds good man , now it makes me want to do mine😂😂 what is the link to order this pipe
It was well worth the money! Just google search for Cobra slip ons for your year, make, and model 👍 there's many different styles and prices so it worth checking them out!
@@NicePantsLancegot it thanks 👍
About to buy one of these VStars. I’m 5’5 female, do you think shifting is going to be a big problem?
You won't have a problem at all, unless it's got forward control extensions on it 👍
@@NicePantsLance welp, I just bought a 2013 vstar 1300 a couple days ago! I just installed this cobra slip on…but it is backfiring like crazy! So I just had to buy the fi2000 fuel management system, once that gets delivered I hope that will fix the issue.
@@69mwagner Cancel that order and get the ECU flashed by Ivans. Like 300 bucks and it'll fix the jerky low speed throttle and fixes all the fuel mapping issues. For the price, the reflash is triple the value of the fi2000.
I hear an occasional rider at 5 6 who has problems being flat-footed st the light, instead of perched on the balls of the feet. Some have lowered it an inch or two, but that results in more dragging floorboards and bottoming out. The 1300 is one of the lowest, sit-in-the-bike motorcycles.
@@trickedmonkey , Ivan is an incredible, obsessive technician. Get his flash.
Plx send the link to buy them thanks

Skip to 5:30 to hear new sound.
Sorry for being impatient. I'm debating upgrades and 'bang-for-the-buck'. I live in an RV park for old, (ahem) retired people, and pipes this loud will result in complaints after my 6 am burrito run. After listening, I'm sticking with Cobra intake, Ivan's flash. Thanks for the video!
For God's sake why didn't you remove the saddle bag?
We were all sharing 1 brain cell that day 😂
I bought cobra slip-ons for my Honda fury 2 years ago. My Fury is always garaged and has never been out in the rain.
The chrome on the bottom pipe now is 'bubbling', rust I imagine.
These pipes are CRAP!!!
They're budget pipes for sure! Not sure where you live. Here in WNY we get so much salt during the winter and so much humidity during the summer that a bike will rust out just sitting in your garage! I always wipe my motorcycles down with a dry rag with a little bit of WD40 sprayed onto it. Keeps the rust away indefinitely 👍
@@NicePantsLance Hi. I'm in Sydney Australia. The one pipe is ok, the other has the rust bubbling underneath. I was told if you buy American you cannot go wrong as they produce high quality parts.
I am very disappointed. I will never buy again based purely on geography. (certainly not in USA unless maybe highly rec recommended from other bikers.)
Eh, you bought the cheapest slip on possible for the Vstar. Its a roll of the dice when it comes to the chrome plating on slip ons. Has nothing to do with "its from USA and thats why its rusting".
Shit happens, you shouldn't put a moretorium on USA products because of 1 mishap. I live in the USA, our products are great. You just had bad luck my friend
@@NicePantsLance Thanks for the heads up, I'll keep it in mind. Ride safe.
Sorry for your misfortune! Ride safe out there 🤘
