Stealth Exhaust release, vids with sound clips and pics
So I waited for quite a while but it was worth it. I currently have the Stealth Exhaust on my Pan Am S.
You have a choice of 2 muffler styles- The Moto and The Street Sweeper (jokingly refered to as the "Baby Waker"?).
1st vid is unbox, install, and a sound comparison between the stock muffler & Stealth's mufflers on start-up and revs.
2nd vid is ride-by's (nephew helped film), and myself on the Pan Am S; on gravel, the main road, and on throttle freeway entrance/cruising. I'll post pics underneath in this same thread but vids 1st-

Great video and pictures...thanks for sharing.
My heart loves the way the Sweeper looks, but my ears would say the Moto Muffler is the way to go.
Have you heard the Vance and Hines in person to offer any comparison. I recently rode a bike with the V&H and loved the way it sounded.

Yep, the Moto is on par with the V&H for sound. The Street Sweeper is louder and deeper, but not too much until you hit the higher revs. I actually made my own baffle and went with the Street Sweeper, the aesthetics were more pleasing to me and I'm handy enough to weld together my own baffle insert. Here's the video of after the baffle (at 1:00 I run a comparison between the unbaffled start up and revs and then after I baffled it) and you can tell the sonic boom/crack is gone at the higher revs-
You can find baffle inserts everywhere, even amazon if you're not keen on welding something together yourself, the ID of the Street Sweeper turned out to be 2 1/8th" (2.125") so a baffle with an OD of that size will slip in.
The baffle I welded together took the sonic boom/crack out of the high RPMs but kept the growl. It took me 3 tries, but I'm stubborn and wouldn't take no for an answer.
It's still slightly louder than the V&H but I'm very happy with it.
I hope this helps, and I'm glad you enjoyed the videos!

I saw your follow up video earlier, it sounds great. I'll probably do the same since I prefer the the aesthetics as well. That's not to say they both don't look great, but the raw finish of the Sweeper fits very well with the attitude of the bike.
