Default What does your CFR's sound like?

Gang,
For my 2012 SG, I want to get a better deep sound. Currently, I have Rinehart mufflers and an air cleaner.

Please check out the link below. If I went with CFR's and V&H headers, will my bike sound like the one in the link? I'm not following all what the guy is saying but that's the sound that I'm going for.

Thanks!

Those are V&H power dual headers, but yes, having heard CFR's before, that's what they sound like.

Just got mine on today. These videos don't do these things justice, but yes you won't be disappointed imo.

So it sounds better? Man, I'm here giggling...

What about tuning? Which tuner did you guys go with?

Thanks again!

Much better in person imo. I changed my headers out at the same time to a Dragos h pipe so I got a map from Frank Dragos for my Power Vision. Sounds and performs great. No loss in performance that I can tell like others here talk about with CFRs.

If you're changing headers anyway, why not do that first and see how the Rineharts sound? It's probably the cat that's killing the exhaust tone.

Video is close, my CFRs remind me of an old muscle car sound.
I have a sound clip on my profile, listen to the end and it will give you an ideal how loud they are.

Yes they sound pretty much like that. I have them installed as well as a stage 1 intake, ceramic header 2-1-2, and Dyna Jet Power Vision from Fuel Moto.

Here is my exhaust sound video for comparison.
