FS: NEW Scorpion CF slip-ons
I have a set of brand new carbon fiber Scorpion Slipons in mint condishion.. Just took them out of the packaging for the pics.. They are made in the U.K.. these are getting verry rare, I couldn't even find a picture of these mounted on a hawk.. IMO, scorpions are truely one the best pipes for the s-hawk (based on quality and sound clips of aluminum ones iv heard online)..The retail on these are about $900 (or close to that)..
As seen in the pics they dont have any badges on the cans, but there are no rivet holes for them, so i guess this is how there surposed to be.. and I actualy prefer the lack of a big-*** scorpion badge on the side- covering up the beautiful carbon fiber
.. Also there is a weird substance on the inside of the midpipes.. looked like carbon build up to me (remember these are brand new), but it didnt smell, and it feel and looks like dirt/dust.. Nothing the sink or hose wont get rid of..
I'm looking for $565 shipped, w/ paypal.. Or if you send me a check for $550 I'll ship them once I cash the check (paypal fees are going to cost me about 17 bucks, so ill pass the savings on to you
).. Dont have to (or want to) sell, but i need some new gear..

These are nice. Scorpion makes nice stuff, and very light.

They are for the VTR... they are just lowmounts...
BTW Pimpsterbim1: I wouldn't say they are rare... Easy to order from UK... Hard to find in the US possibly?

Well according to Scorpions official website it it the correct part #.. unless they got mixed up at the distributor... Now im a little woried, because my yoshi's (that i just sold) do have a bend in them..
.. Well ill probably mount them up this weekend, and let you know how it went..
As far as being rare, I ment more like unique.. I have not seen one picture, or seen anyone having these on there hawk in the US.. and I couldnt find anyone who still had these in stock. Everyone said they could special order them from the UK, but that would take up to 6 months! and cost a lot in shipping, on top of the fat full-retail price..

Thanks for noticing VTR kuski!! They didnt fit, oviously..Im 95% sure there for an RC51... So the guy at the place i got them from said he was going to check to see if he could find the superhawk ones in annother box, and swap them out..
Glad i didn't sell them to anyone!!
