I'm running Vance & Hines Super Radius and am real happy with em.Nice thing is they're made to run with or without baffle so you don't loose power running no baffle. Sound awesome with no baffle, pretty mellow with.

I've got cobra speedster slashdowns. Pretty noisy. Not sure if I'll ever try quiet baffling.

I'm running Vance & Hines Big shots staggered without baffles, sounds amazing but not too obnoxious. Highly recommended.

Well...we may have lost the OP...hope he got his bike. At any rate, everyone has their own preference. I have V & H Big Radius 2-1. Great performance and great low idle rumble and bark at higher RPM. Not thin sounding. Not crazy loud either; just right.

This is my first Harley and I am not that familiar with how to upgrade the exhaust for sound and performance.

All you need to do is remove the baffles bro. It'll be super loud

And make sure to flip off all your neighbors as you pass their house. It's not your fault they now hate living near you. This is America and breaking noise abatement laws is part of the freedom we are granted here!
