Default Springer Classic Exhaust

So I got my Vivid Black Springer Classic and I want to change the exhaust.
My other bike, which I'm trying to sell, is a Deuce with Big Radius and no baffles, so it's loud, and even thought the Springer has Screamin' Eagle slip-ons, it's not loud at all. I would really like to put the V&H Fishtail Slip-Ons, are these pipes baffled?? if so, are the baffles removable?? how about the Samson Silve bullets, any thoughts on these?

Thanks

I have the Samson Bullet Muffs with Fishtails... Super sharp looking but could be louder...

I almost wish I had gone with V&H Fishtail slipons, I undertand they are louder(and deeper tone)

I have Vance & Hines True Duals with the fishtail slipons and they look great and sound great, too. I am changing them, however, since I am doing a high-performance build. I am switching to a Vance & Hines Pro Pipe - sacrificing looks for performance. I will be selling the exhaust.

To be honest, as I sit here, I can't say. But they must have, because you can order quiet baffles from Vance & Hines. These are not quiet, by the way. I have True Duals and Ovals on my Electra Glide and this exhaust is louder, but still sounds good, if you know what I mean.

I've got brand new V&H Duals sitting in the box right here and right beside that brand new V&H quiet baffles to swap into them. So... the baffles are removable. I have the HD fishtail slip-ons currently on my bike. I'll know the sound difference when I get these put on next week.

what's a good place to buy them? I've heard they'd been backordered for some time, is it still the case?

The fishtail end caps are backordered. SUPPOSEDLY, the next release is like yesterday or today. But they are indeed on national back order, per V&H and all the distributors.

The pipes on the otherhand are readily available. V&H Softail True Duals. I bought mine through Eastern Performance Parts $519.95 and the Fuelpak from them as well for $216.95 + free shipping.

I couldn't find the quite baffles on easternperformance.com so I ordered them through Zanotti's as well as the Fishtails.

I plan on just installing everything and when the Fishtail end caps come in I can just pop them on.

Default I will be selling the exhaust.

How much for the pipes? U have a carburetor right? U suppes the pipes would work with EFI? I only got my 07 Spring Classic couple weeks ago and i have a bit of a learning curve to climb...to say the least.
