Default Pythons
I'm looking to buy Pythons (Slip Ons), anybody have experience with these pipes? Good or Bad? From the Youtube videos they sound louder than hell! A Harley mechanic also recommended them to me.

We can`t give you an answer, we are too busy trying to guess the model and year.

Listening to the sound that a set of pipes makes on Youtube through your computer isn't the best way to gauge what they really sound like. Too many variables going on. So, I wouldn't solely base any judgement on that!

I've had their 2-2 pipes on my FXR. Good pipes. Not too loud (IMHO)...nothing like drag pipes if that's a concern.
