Vance and Hines shortshots
Hi to all, I'd be interested to install the vance and hines short shots on my night train, I am just curious to know if those pipes are much louder compared to stock, I'm not a huge fan of "too loud" pipes and really don't want my neighbours to hate for this.
Thanks a lot! |

I'd say \\;they are a good bit louder but not obnoxious loud. I would say you can keep them a bit quite lugging out of town. The sound is good..... PS my neighbors have kids and haven't said anything when I leave in the morning.

The problem with short shots is they are very loud to your ears as they stop almost in line with your body. I have the loud baffles in mine and they gave me a headache until I lost some hearing in my right ear. I had my bike dyno tuned twice and it still pops quite a bit on deceleration. The stealer said the popping was probably due to the loud baffels. Do not let anyone kid you they are hard on your ears. \\; \\;

I've got them on my Cross Bones and they're much quieter with the quiet baffles than the S&S slip ons I had before. Great sound IMHO

RE: Vance and Hines shortshots
I also have them on my cross bones.... have ordered the quiet baffles

RE: Vance and Hines shortshots
I have them on my deuce and they are definitely loud. \\;\\\\\\; I have no baffles in them. \\;\\\\\\; I do try to be a good neighbor by \\;\\\\\\;keeping the noise down in \\;\\\\\\;residential areas. \\;\\\\\\;

I have an 06 Springer (88) with Short Shots on. \\; Its about as loud as my wife's 07 Deuce (96) running Big Radius. \\; Both are definitely louder than stock but should not get you in trouble unless you blip the throttle a lot or are one of those people that winds out the gears and drives it hard all the time. \\; They can be plenty loud if you really twist the throttle but for the most part they are ok. \\; As loud as you want them to be I guess.
I have a SERT but have not had the bike Dyno'd yet. \\; I can get it pretty darn close in my driveway\\; at least close enough that its not worth spending Dyno dollars on it. \\; I'm using a slightly modded Stage I canned map. \\; I had some decel popping but I made a few minor changes to the map and all the poppoing is gone. \\; |
RE: Vance and Hines shortshots
i have them with quiet baffles...not really quiet, if you know what i mean, but you would not be disapointed.............:)
