Default Samson fishtail

Is anyone running any Samson silver bullet fishtail straight pipes? No baffles..?
What's your opinion on them?

The power you will end up losing, is like not noticeable, and I don't ride a harley because I like to race, so it's nothing I'm worried about. Before I purchase them, I'm searching the web to make sure the V&H fuelpak will support them.
They will sound extremly good. I'm stoked

Ran them on my Deluxe with a set of Xied's and loved them! Not as loud as some pipes while riding because the sound is behind you. My buddy hated riding behind me though...
