Default Slip-ons for 2008 1200C

I am thinking of throwing some slippers on my 1200 Custom and wanted to get some feedback on what is the best (sound wise). Doesnt have to set off car alarms or **** off the neighbors all the time, just a little attention in traffic would be nice. I am currently looking at V&H Straight Shots and Rush 1.75 Slip-ons. Any advice?

I am all for the Cycle Shacks. I have them and like the sound. Lots of good videos on Youtube to look at.

I have the V&H Straighshots on my Nightster and they sound great! They are kinda loud not sure how loud you're looking for but they do sell the quieter baffles for them for not too much more money. Bout mine on Ebay I'd look there first! Good luck and let us know which ones you decide to go with. Check youtube also lots of pipe vids on there.

I've got a set of V&H Straightshot Slip-ons for sale. They came off of my 08 883C. Took them off because I traded the bike. They're loud, sound good.
Also selling the Power Comander III that I used with them. Let me know if you're interested.

V&H StraighShots with the Quiet Baffles. You'll like the sound. The qb's will tone down the tinny sound and bring out a little more of the "Harley" sound.
