After a lifetime of motorcycle riding and almost 3 decades of leading Samson Exhaust, the legendary “Godfather of Pipes”, CEO and Founder of the iconic Samson Exhaust, Kenny Price, is looking to ride off into the sunset and retire.
Samson Exhaust was officially founded in 1991 with the mission to build great looking pipes that you would be proud of. In the lifetime of Samson Exhaust, the company has built and sold hundreds of thousands of exhaust systems for Harley-Davidson and other makes of motorcycles.
Throughout the years Samson Exhaust has been one of the worlds’ leading aftermarket exhaust company for Harley Davidson motorcycles. Many of the popular styles you see today were invented by Kenny Price himself. Styles like true dual crossovers, a multitude of Big Guns, Cholos and beyond. Samson set a standard of quality that is common today among all exhaust companies.
However, now Kenny would like to pass on this legacy to a new loving owner. Someone who will share his philosophy of giving customers what they deserve. A great product for a fair price and a style all their own. (picture Kenny Price with his son Stan Price)
Included with the company: • All machinery, equipment, tools, vehicles, etc. • All office furniture, computers, and office equipment. • All intellectual property (patents, trademarks, copyrights, internet, imagery, etc). • 45,000 square foot purpose built manufacturing facility. • All product designs, trade secrets, and manufacturing methods. • All complete and mid process inventory. • Misc business related items. • 2 years of transitional employment of the CEO and VP (optional). • All other misc items.
Kenny is a great guy and wish him the best in the coming years.
Has great pipes and sound
The industry’s baby boomer generation is retiring. Expect big names to also retire this year, and next, and next, etc.
Kenny is a great guy and a lot of fun to be around. I wish him the very best in his retirement!
Wonder why Stan is not stepping up and taking the company over?
Over & Out,
Jeff
Good for you Kenny. I highly recommend retirement.
To be able to retire is an accomplishment, I guess. But we all would like to be younger.
You will have to love living in Sturgis all year long…and South Dakota winters. But a good company.
Sure hope the classic look never “retires”… ya just have to love those fish-tail mufflers….. 🙂

I didn’t see a price
stopped selling their products many years ago for several good reasons, but good luck with retirement
Here is a thought
They see the hand writing on the wall.
The EPA is on a tangent against the aftermarket.
It is only a matter of time, before the hammer falls and the business ending fines get handed out.
