I work for the post office and if it's a fairly heavy item over 50 lbs I have found that UPS will usually ship it cheaper.

  How do you like your drag pipes Crash?  I installed a set on my bike a few years back and love the sound of them.  They can be a little taxing on ya on a long trip, but not too bad with the radio ear plugs in.  I got mine in an attempt to scare the deer away from the road at night.  I'd had quite a few close calls with the deer with all the night riding I do and had got to the point I was just about scared to ride at night anymore.  After installing the drag pipes, all I ever see of deer at night now is them running off before I get to them.

I installed a set of 55 watt driving lights at the same time, and that helped me see threats a lot farther out as well.  The pipes and lights combined, made me feel a lot safer riding at night around here.

Last night I just went out and bought a set of 55 Watt driving lights for my Voyager 1200.  It's only got the stock lighting on it now, and I feel blind on it at night compared to the magna.

OK, for an update.  Pipes are now switched out on my bike, love the sound with out baffles.  My old pipes now belong to Greg  :grin:  I got the replacement motor cover for my bike from him.  My bike got lots of goodies this Christmas.  I really had no clue on how to pack the pipes to ship anyway, thanks again Greg and Crash    :cool:
