Default Why not more V&H double barrel?

Whats the deal here?&nbsp\\; Is there less performance than with the big shot staggered?&nbsp\\; If the performance is the same, then its just a looks/sound preference issue.
&nbsp\\;
Opinons?

With the help of my HD Decoder Ring I think I'm able to decipher this post...
&nbsp\\;
If your comparing V&amp\\;H BSS to Harley 16 Gauge Double Barrel pipes then here is my take on it.
&nbsp\\;
HD 16 Gauge have a larger Cross-Over Chamber and don't have removable End Tips.
&nbsp\\;
I have HD 16 Gauge on my bike and they are not obnoxiously loud but loud enough for me.
&nbsp\\;
Can't say which is better sonce I haven't owned both.
&nbsp\\;
The HD's are cheaper...

the HD 16 gauge double barrels are now made by Vance &amp\\; Hines and called the "Q" series.

Not certain about performance but I have read there is a loudness difference.&nbsp\\; But I don't know that from personal experience.
