I have an 05 FXD, stage 4 SE kit, Bassani Pro Streets, 94hp, 94tq. Love the look of the Bassani`s,, and the sound, but I`ve moved to the big city (downtown Baltimore) and I'm looking for a (somewhat) quieter exhaust without giving up any flow or power. I want to stick with a stepped header design, but a 2:1 instead of the 2:2 like the Pro Streets. I'm looking seriously at the new Bassani Road Rage 2 (short #1D5250B) or Vance and Hines` Competition Series(75-108-9), or maybe something from Hacker. (I know the VH isn`t designed for my bike, but I guess that`s just a matter of making a new hanger bracket, right?) Any thoughts on whether either of these pipes will make any difference in sound or power? Any other pipe suggestions? Thanks in advance.

I spoke with the owner of Hacker and he is pretty fueled about his pips. I plan on getting a set of Warheaders very soon based on my chat with him. The only pipes that compare to the Warheaders are Vance and Hines Comp, Thunderheaders and RB racing LSRs according to him. If you are active duty military he'll cut 25% off the cost of the pipes, that is a really good deal.

 

I just bought the Bassani 1D5250. Bike is at the shop now getting new back tire and 30t pulley done along with pipe install and new tune. I'll post a dyno sheet when I get it all done. I dont think it's going to be a very quiet pipe though.
