Default Need louder pipes
Stock exhaust isn't going to cut it. Going down the road all I hear is the wind. I need something louder. What is everyone running?

thanks

If you want to try an inexpensive modification, yank your baffles and install a set of Thunder Torque Inserts (TTI's). I'm running em in a set of SE slip-ons. They prevent power loss and deliver an aggressive sound but not that cheap resonant noise you get by simply removing baffles.

Check em out on DK Custom's site. They're a forum sponsor.

lots of choices out by now..quite a few opted for SE Street Canons, myself included and they are nice..couple aftermarkets that come to mind from hearing about here are the Rineharts and Fuel Moto Jackpots which folks seem really high on and the price can't be beat..good luck!

Plenty of vids on youtube, but best to hear them live. They're not cheap as we all know.

I recently put the Fuel Moto M8 Jackpots on mine, and took it for a 20-mile ride yesterday with my 11yr. old on the back. Slightly louder at idle, still fairly quiet cruising, sound great when you crack the throttle under load!

I'm going with Cobra NH slip ons but keeping stock headpipe. They sound better than most out there right now. On back order till months end though.

Any of these almost as loud as the VH big radius like people put on the 103? I don't really wanna spend money for only slightly louder
