Default Sweetest Exhaust note ?
what do you think is the sweetest exhaust note from the Harely engines ? , i vote for the Shovelhead engine then evo's, pans, knuckles and lastly the twin cam. have'nt heard any m8 with straight pipes yet so i don't know. hard to beat the sound of a shovel though.

1. Shovels with stagered duals.
2. Pans with fishtails
3. Any Flathead whose exhaust can be heard over the rattling of the engine
4. Evo's with true duals
5. Twinkies with CFR's
6. Everything else

A chevy big block with glass packs. For a motorcycle, a panhead with straight pipes.
