Need Exhaust Selection Advice
2005 Fat boy with stage 1 and AC. 95 ci heads with stock cams. It came from HD with the download, Stage 1 ACand heads. I have three exhaust and have had all dyno'd and mapped for my power commander. I have the stock pipes on the bike now, but also have V&H BSS and V&H propipe. Which pipe should I stick with? The BSS looks great and performs well, but is on the loud side even though I have the quiet baffles. The propipe sounds great, but has that 2-1 look about it. The stock pipes perform ok, are accepted everywhere due to their mild sound and look good. Given all the issues related to noise and tickets should I stick with the stock pipes. Here in Georgia I have had no issues ever with the law regarding pipe noise no matter which pipe is on the bike. I ride a lot and want to do some day trips to the mountains of Tennessee. I would just like to stick with one and quit changing every month 
Thanks for your suggestions in advance.

My opinion is louder pipes save lifes and if I get a ticket, which is just an equipment violation, then I will be happy to pay it...I was driving in my carthe other dayand I went to change lanes at the last minute I saw this guy on his quiet HD in my blind spot... I swerved back after seeing him and as he rode by I indicated I couldn't see him butI also thought to myself "if he had louder pipes I would have known he was there"
Just my opinion....Love my Samsons

...and what's wrong with the 2 into 1 look? I have SE Pro 2 into 1's on my 05 Fattieand love the look, but that's me.So with that saidI'd stickthe V&H Pro's and they do perform better. And look good, maybe not as good as my SE Pro's but they don't make them anymore. Always wondered about that.
Guess I just opened myself up there...heh heh
