Hi Bob,
Last fall I ordered new mufflers from Mathieu's Custom Exhaust, the same company
that everybody was talking about after last year's Americade. They are louder
than the stock mufflers and I really like them. People in cars notice me now
because of it. They have a nice deep rumble at idle and gets a little louder
in 1st and 2nd gear, but at cruising speeds the sound is just perfect. That
sound makes me feel much safer on the road. They underline the body of the
bike in a very nice way also.
A nearby member (David May) took his Cavalcade to the shop so they could
determine the proper fit for the Cavalcade. The mufflers and parts can now
be duplicated for the members of the group. They are made out of stainless
steel and polished to a luster. The price is $650 for a set of two.
They fit in place of the stock ones with no problems, so mounting is very easy.
I think we had a very good source of mufflers here ( with Mathieu's ). When I was looking for a set, the
Suzuki dealer give me a price $299 /ea and added that they are not available anymore.
I love "our" web site, it is a constant source of information about my bike.
I have also met some good people there. Thank you.
Best regards

Boys and girls,
If you not only want to 'look', but also SOUND bad.....you just have to have
pipes made for the Cavalcade by Mathieu's Custom Exhaust.......
Ride On
