Screaming Eagle Pipes?

Looking to upgrade my stock pipes on my Softail Deluxe. Anyone have these or have heard them. What do you think? Thanks.

Do you mean the 16 gauge double barrel? If so they are awsume. I've heard a few wives say they are too loud but I think they have a great sound just put a set on my Night train. They have a real good balance system to keep the pony's up there. And I was told Vance and Hinse makes them for Harley. Correct me if I'm wrong but this is what I was told.

i was told the same thing reguarding the 16 guage, but the price is higher for those than the v&h big shots so why not go for v&h

I was looking at exhausts a couple months back, and the dealer was kind enough to start up some bikes for me.
I don't care for the SEs', and neither did my dealer.
I like the V-H Big Shots better. Same look, same maker, different animal. The SE 16s' have a huge connecting chamber at the end of the pipe, which makes them sound exactly like a 2 into 1.
I have heard both of these pipes side by side at the same time, and the V-H are louder but very pronounced. I would bet the SE's perform better, but I would rather have that nasty HD sound.

SE2s are the bomb. The V&H are also great - more money. I personaly like the SE2s better. The SE2s have a little less volume, but a slightly deeper low end - I have noticed. The SE2s are very loud. I have set off many a car alarm - and that always makes me feel good : )

i have the se 16 gage.thought i wanted louder so i put v& h big shot baffles in.when right ear actually hurt going between buildinds on main st. i figured my ears were more important than a really loud bike. stock baffles are now back in. also was getting ringing in ear which sometimes never goes away,luckily mine did.
