Default Longshots

Anybody have a pic of a Fatboy with V&H Longshots. Pics on the V&H website are highly customized bikes. What about the sound?

They sound great. I don't have a pic...

I heard them on a bike at my local HD dealer. Maybe yours has one they're storing for the winter?

I'll have to check with them, never thought of that, love the way they look on the site, think when i order the bike i might have to go ahead and get pipes, air kit and have them do the remap before i even get it. Gotta have the sound to go with the look!!Those stock mufflers just dont do it justice!!

I had everything on my EG at pickup. I didn't want to have to take it back and wait once I had thrown my leg over it...

I have a 90 FXST.
The Long Shots sound excellent.
The draw back is that your front pipe now goes all the way to the rear and will drag on occasion. I ride 2 up all the time. I fiannly just pre-loaded the shocks as much as I could and it seldom scrapes.
I still would not trade them.

I installed a set on my Dyna and they sound great. Nice rumble without being obnoxious and look good.

and yes,....they will set off car alarms!

How are they on the highway at 70mph? my V&H 2-to-1 Pro HS pipes are annoying with their high pitched sound - real bad with a lid.
