I went with the Vance & Hines big radius. I’m very happy with the look and sound.

Just installed the S & S Grand Nationals on my 18 Deluxe; all hardware and gaskets are included. Easy install and they are fairly quiet at idle with the DB reducers in but they wake up when you crack the throttle. More than loud enough for this old man. Cant wait until spring so I can see how they sound under power. With the blizzard we had here in ND and MN it'll be a while before we can get our bikes out again.

Curious if you think it sounds like V&H website's sound clip?
Did you change the tune? Decel Pop?

This pipe in black finish is on my short list.

Thanks

Although I don't speak french I found this one of the sport glide .
I

If you look at v&h website, go to sport glide page there is a sound clip at the bottom of the page.
I do question if that clip is from a M8 or a 103.
