BUB Exhaust for VN1700

dbui · 06-04-2012, 01:37 PM

I spoke to the Bub sale dept today. According to Bub manufacture there are not enough VN1700 interest for their after market pipe so they did not bother to make it. I find that hard to believed! I used to own a Honda VTX1300c with the Bub exhaust and it sounds BAD A........ I hope to see Bub manufacture making the exhaust for VN1700 in the future!

I was surprised as well that Bub didn't have any for the 1700's. My pal has them on his Ultra and they sound pretty good.

Vulcan 1700's are more of a niche market than Harleys. There just isn't enough money in it to make it worth their trouble.

I thought that Bub had gone out of business a few years ago.It looks like they may have made a comeback.

Yeh that what the sale rep. from Bub told me, but he also said that if there are enough people calling and asking for their product, it will escalate to the upper management therefore they will have to do something about it.
I keep my fingers cross

Somebody needs to come out with a ceramic black coated exhaust! There's already too much chrome on the Vaq!
