most everyone i know has loud pipes, but one buddy had those v&h radius like that and it was so loud no one wanted to ride on his right side, also in parking lots it will blow dust and sh*t all over anybody on your right. alot of the biker places around here are half dirt lots and we use to make him park on the end
just something to think about, they do look nice
Did he have the baffles in them?
Some ppl remove them for MORE sound, LOL
(I kept mine in)
I dont know if he had the baffles in or not, cant say for sure. knowin him he probobly had them out
Reason I asked, is that even though the big radius is loud, it is Just as loud as any of my previous V&H pipes. It is not earth shattering loud imho and have never experienced it throwing dirt etc...
I guess, it will also depend on what setup and tune each bike has. My neighbor has a carbed WG and we had same V&H pipes. His was definitely louder (I really cant explain why)
Now, talk about loud my other neighbor behind my house has straight pipes and thats LOUD! lol
Also, at idle in a wide open area or cruising at highway speeds, there's a very noticable exhaust sound reduction. I barely hear it esp when cruising at certain speeds.
Just looking for a better sound (louder) on my 14 FXDL. Whats the easiest fix? How do you install the end caps (billett)?
What I did was install the Screamin' Eagle Nightstick slip on and ended up with a 5 disk stack and the Supertrapp stainless steel open end cap. I am still running the stock headpipes with the catalytic converter in place. Nice sound at idle and constant speed cruising and lets out a great tone/volume level when twisting the go stick.

Sounds like just what I want.

Well, we couldn't resist. My wife had this crazy idea of trading in my 2012 Kawasaki Ninja ZX14R for another Harley. I already have a 2013 Softail Breakout and she has a fully chromed out Sportster Superlow. Just last year we traded in a 2012 Dyna Wide Glide for the Breakout. Don't get me wrong, I think the Breakout is one hell of a bike, but we found out it doesn't make a very good long distance cruiser. Our Dyna Wide Glide was great we rode it a lot. But once I saw the Breakout I couldn't resist. So, we wanted a long distance cruiser but we were not looking for a touring bike. So, my wife and I saw the the Dyna Low Rider at our local dealer, William's HD. So, someway somehow she talked me into giving up my big Ninja and we went home and picked up the Ninja and we traded it in. So, once again we are the proud owners of a Dyna. So, since getting the new Low Rider was more of her idea, I took the first pics of the bike with her on it.
Oh, btw. I saw some pics here of the Low Rider with the V&H Big Radius pipes. I didn't see those pipes listed on V&H website so, whoever has it one their Low Rider, would you please let me know what the part number is. Did you have to do any mods to make it work? Did the oxygen sensors mount on without an adapter? Let me know, thanks.
