Default Suggestions for exhuast pipes?

I'm getting a 06" Dyna Super Glide this month and want to put on an EXTREMELY LOUD deep roaring exhuast. Any suggestions for pipes? I've heard Vance & Hines Shortshots Staggered or any Samson pipes are exactly what I'm looking for, can anyone vouch for that?what about Pythons or Bassani? Also does anyone know a website where I can listen to what a certain exhaust pipe will sound like? Thanks

My suggestion would be to think carefully about the loud pipes before you go that route. Some localities have noise laws that may cause you some trouble. Also, I have SEII's on my XL and even those cause some "buzz" in my ears after long-distance rides.

You're gonna pay fines, you're gonna pi$$ off the neighbors and you're gonna suffer hearing loss eventually (dont ask me how I know all this) so I agree with the others here, think about what you are doing, but if you are absolutely convinced you need LOUD pipes, generally the shorter the pipe length the louder the sound. Good luck ...................BG

Have had the Samsons on my bike,Ground pounder,Sawed offs and short drag pipes.
They all have a nice sound to them. Also baffles can be installed if need be.

Neighbor has an 05 Sportster. He just installed a set of Bassani pipes, and they sound great. Chrome looks very high quality after 400 miles.

I considered Bassani for my stock 06 RKC, but after our 200 mile ride yesterday, no way I want to listen to that volumn all the time. Sounds great, but a little too loud for my hearing.

Whatever system you get (Obnoxious or semi-tame), ensure that they have the 02 bungs installed. If by chance those sensors are taken out of the loop, you will cause serious damage to your bike.....
