Default Firesweeps?
Stuck between bassani firesweeps and short shots. I think the firesweeps look better but the baffles aren't removable. Anyone have any input on how loud these things are? Only reason considering the short shots is for the quiet baffles.

I have short shots with the quiet baffles. I wouldn't call the pipes quiet by any means, but with the quiet baffles, the tone is much deeper than the cycle shack slip ons I pulled off the bike. I don't think there is really any way to know which ones you want without actually hearing them.

I have Bassani Firesweeps on my 10 Street Bob and get nothing but compliments on the sound. They are loud when you get on it but just cruising they are pretty quiet. Idle sound drowns out normal conversation though. I found some videos on youtube and used them to check the sound,just type in Bassani Firesweep and it should come up.

I checked them out on YouTube and damn they sound awesome. Good to hear about cruising speed not being to bad. That was my main concern.

The Firesweeps get my vote. They are a great looking pipe.

Yeah I think I'm set on the firesweeps. I think the road rage looks good but I'm a bigger fan of the 2 into 2
