Default I'm getting old....
Picked up a 2008 Heritage last fall as a second bike to share garage with my 2007 street bob. I had V&H straight shot slip ons on the Dyna and they were sweet. Put a set on my Heritage and after a couple longer rides, the stockers are back on. They were way too loud. I've never had an issue with loud pipes but for some reason these pipes on this bike were giving me a headache. I think it has to do with how short the front pipe is. It ends right under me, not behind me. Guess I'll look into something else...

Before anyone comments, the pipe on my Dyna currently is a Rush 2:1, not the straight shots I stated in previous post.

Longshots look and sound great with the exits way behind.
