What's New at Samson

There have been big changes taking place at Samson over the past few years. All of them good. Ever the innovator "The Godfather of Pipes" Kenny Price and Samson have continued to move forward and come out with plenty of hot new styles and applications for 2008. They've upgraded and updated lots of the old favorites, too, all the while keeping a sharp eye and keen ear on those ever expanding EPA regulations. In addition to keeping up with emissions, sound and style, Samson Motorcycle Products has expanded and opened the doors of the Samson Custom Shop. Located in Orange County, California, this modest 17,000 square foot shop houses a full range of state of the art manufacturing equipment and a small but well seasoned staff. The new facility will be the central location for research and product development for Samson. Limited production is already underway at this facility for their new High Performance exhaust systems that are designed to meet the new government regulations. Systems from the Samson Custom Shop are scheduled to hit the streets in early 2008
With all of these big changes and moves in mind, Samson has decided to return to their roots. The original Big Guns are back. Loud and proud these top sellers are back by popular demand for 2008. With great style and sound this series is still an unbeatable hit. Ground Pounders, Outlaws, Street Sweepers, Rip Saws, and the popular Side Winders are back and with a vengeance. These are the pipes that destroyed the competition years ago and will do so again today.
"True Duals" of course are red hot right now. Samson has some beauties for '08. Brand new is their Black Ceramic Pipes known as their Sinister Blacks. Ranging in styles and applications the finish on these pipes provides the ultimate adhesion and corrosion protection. Their newest addition to their product line is the Legend Series available in both Sinister Ceramic Black and their exclusive "Quad Chrome" show finish. The Legend series is available in a wide variety of styles to chose from and contain removable baffles and removable full coverage heat shields. This series was designed and tuned to produce maximum horsepower, torque and killer sound. Every pipe in the Legend Series is C.A.R.B. approved with oxygen sensor ports that accept O.E.M. and aftermarket sensors.
Paving the way, Samson always has and will continue to set a standard for the motorcycle industry. Their styles and designs are still copied world wide, while these pipes may look the same nothing compares to a Samson pipe in quality or sound. Kenny Price the founder and CEO of Samson once said, "From the very beginning we set out to build the very best motorcycle exhaust systems. We designed every aspect of our company to do just that. And we've succeeded."
