Where the heck are the Thunder Sticks listed and sold? I thought they were a Ness item, but their web page is for the birds. I can't get anywhere on the Ness/Vegas site.

Thanks, Rebel.
That is the site I've been to, and it isn't set up to see anything of value. All they give you is a number to call and order the few parts they have. Not a very user friendly site. Can't seem to go anywhere except the gallery, to see the pics from their rides. It shows a small pic of the fuel controller, but nothing of the exhaust system, and none of them are links. I couldn't click on anything except the gallery pics.

This is the best I can do to help out. I like the looks and the sound as well....

Ah, sorry. I thought you meant that you couldn't find the Thundersticks on the Ness site. That's all I can find, a pic with the price and a phone number.

I see what you mean about their site. You'd think they'd have a nice page that let you see nice, big pics and descriptions of their custom parts and maybe even a way to--ummm, I dunno.... order stuff.

A little bit of info about Thundersticks.....

They are actually made by Thunder Headers. Which happens to be owned by the Hells Angels.

They are only sold by Arlen Ness. Who happens to be a friend of Sonny Barger...past national president of the Hells Angels.

There has been reports of "drivability issues" with the Thundersticks. Our resident "Vic Tech Expert" Kevin X actually states "DO NOT purchase them"

And they are about $2000.00...yep...you are reading it correctly...$2k

They have a flat spot in the low RPM range. There is an insert that will solve this but I don't think it is worth the money. I have already talked to several dealers here in FL. The only thing they have is a good sound. If you want any information about them at all you have to go through a dealer. Their web site does not give much information and they will not talk to you over the phone or at least they would not talk to me.
