New Fat Bob owner
Just got my 2009 Fat Bob with only 500 miles on it. Owner was a businessman with no time to ride it.
He has a Vance & Hines Big Radius 2 into 1 exhaust on the bike and honestly it's not my style.
Since the bike is black, I'm looking to get a blacked out exhaust. Can't really make up my mind right now, so I need help.
Looks wise, the Samson Street Sweepers look great, but how's the sound and performance.
I want something throaty. I don't want obnoxious loud, but when I crank the gas, I want people to know I'm around

Congrats on the new Fatbob! I like the big radius. I went back and forth between the big shots and big radius and got the big shots. But I like both. You could also try baffles for a quieter sound.

Good choice in bikes - you'll enjoy it. Try a YouTube search on the Street Sweepers and you should come across a couple of clips with sound that might give you an idea of what you're looking for. Good luck.
