Greetin's. Recently purchased a very well maintained '04 Kingpin. Approx 21k miles. Replaced all fluids (brake/oil change), new NGK plugs, cleaned K&N filter n' relived. Fully decked out bike with the hard leather covered saddle bags, windshield, shotgun exhuast(although unsure what brand they are, but sound mean.) I'm a street rider now for 20yrs now n' been ridin' on 2's since age 8. I'm now 38 .... Recently transferred to TX from Oahu, HI military. Mostly have had sport bikes all these years, huge MotoGP fan, but have had a couple cruisers. I'm at the age now, especially havin' youngin's, that is rather move away from the sport bike realm. Anyways, if anyone can shed light on these brand of exhaust that would be great. Thanks for the add & God Bless you all!

Also, I have a question bout the forward turns. Mine are not constant lit as running lights. Is this typical for these bikes or can I replace bulbs with a 2 prong/2 way for running lights as well? & would like to obtain a tank bib/tuxedo with pouch, but havin' problems findin' any. Suppose eBay is the best place to search, ya? Thanks y'all

Thanks gents. Appreciate the acceptance. Can any of you or others shed light on brand of pipes are on my ride? Also, I've searched n' even called a couple apparel stores & a Vic dealer n' none of them have a means to order a tank bib. Years ago I had one on my '07 Suzy Boulevard S50 Intruder 800. Also, the only other cruiser I've ever owned was a '10 Honda Fury. But gotta say this Vic surpasses them all. I'm mechanically inclined, so I'll offer any help I can as well. Also, I notice many folk on here have a nice lookin' bullet style head light. Where's the preferred area to look for them as well? Thanks y'all n' God Bless.

Nice looking bike grey, I'm not too familiar with exhaust options for an 04 but I'm gonna guess some sort of straight slip on with stock headers. Someone more familiar will chime in I'm sure.
Keep an eye on ebay and the classifieds for a headlight, they usually sell pretty quick when they pop up.
Before dropping some coin on mods, spend some time on this site searching and reading or ask questions, there's a lot of knowledge here.

Nice Bike.
I have a 04 Kingpin as well. Bought it new. It has been the best bike I have ever owned.
I have thought about trading up many times, but I have not found anything that is worth the extra dollars. The Kingpin fits me well.
Not that the Cross Country, Visions, and Indians are not nice bikes. But for 10K plus more, not worth it, IMHO. They do not ride any better than my Pin. They do have more conveniences and electronic niceties, including much better bag capacity. But ride and performance wise not much difference.
Besides for 10K Lyodz could turn this bike into a screamer!
