Default Vrod sound

Anybody know of an exhaust kit/ stage kit that will make my 2013 vrod muscle sound like a real Harley?

Of course our v-rods are harleys, but not the regular run of the mill harley! I have owned several harleys, but I do not expect this one to sound like a v-twin. It is a muscle bike not a dyna wideglide or fatboy!

Default Exhaust Mod

Go to the 1130CC forum and do a search. The mod a lot of guys recommend to give a bit of the throaty sound without a tuner or new pipes is to drill holes in the end of the exhaust. I have attached one link to the 1130 site that basically explains what this is about. PS I did not do this mod. I like mine just the way she sounds. Myself personally I would put on a Von Braun roadsters. I talked to them and they can fit on a VROD. Here is the link. Not cheap $649 but good quality.

We have a CFR exhasut on our Street Rod. This bike sounds insane! Deep as can be and a super lower rumble. After taking it for a spin and getting back on my other Harley's, I wanted to figure out how to get the VROD sound on them. Check them out.

I had 6 different exhausts on my first V and I agree the CFR is the best!

It will never sound like a traditional v twin Harley. Love it for what it is, the fastest Harley on the showrrom floor!

No, never like my 08 Night Train, stage II, with Samson Shorties, but after some research 'Tabs' makes a decent sounding set of pipes, big improvement. Much better than the Vance & Hines, Rineharts or any of the others I've found so far....still searching tho!
