Default V&H big radius 2 into 2- whats louder?

Well I have a set of Big Radius 2into2's on a superglide with a 96" motor.

I have several bikes and wanted obnoxious loud on this bike, but these don't seem as loud as I would have liked.

Do you guys rate these as loud or what else is out there that is louder?

Why not match the exhaust with the engine?

You can always be obnoxious by redlining it at all times.

I guess you could try taking out the baffles. I know guy here who did that, and his to me are stupid loud. People tell me mine are too loud WITH the baffles, so I just gotta wonder, "why?"
Do you not want any friends? Do you take pleasure in upsetting the peace of everyone within a mile's radius of you?

Run no exhaust,just straight from the heads. You'll be so loud the ladies panties will drop everytime you ride by.

I've got them also and I wish they were a bit louder. Haven't tried removing the baffles because of the performance hindering it would cause. My wife has I believe Big Shots and I think they are a bit louder. The problem is maintaining performance, while trying to go louder. They are not #1 when it comes to performance but for a 2 into 2 they are tough to beat.


And yes I do not want friends, and I hate my neighbors....that is why I want mine louder!!

The only thing I could think to be louder is Short Shots without baffles.

I agree with QC and it's why I was going to get these and didn't.

I too have the V/H big radius 2-2. difference between us is that I have a 103. Louder than I really wanted but the sound is really nice. Mine is so loud, they asked me (loudest bike in the group) to start my bike when we all (30+ bikes) stopped at a flea market, to let the other riders know it was time to go. It worked!
