I've got the V&H Double Barrel Longs on and they're very nice. They've already got the quiet baffles built in. Other choice would be the true duals or the 2 into 1.

If you are doing true duals we vote for either Samson or Vance and Hines. If doing big shots, big shots long. Just a humble 2 cents.

If i was to do it again, since the deluxe style mufflers are a little reminiscent of the high low drag pipes,think i would give them samson cannons ago. they look pretty nice and am sure being samson would sound good....plus you be saving a heap of cash for other stuff.....Also in black. so team them up with the black screaming eagle heat shields...................................

My wife has Rush 1.75" slip-on's with the SE intake and V&H FuelPak on her '09 Deluxe.

Loud enough, sound good... She's happy.

I can get a pic if you want to see it, I thought I had one...

I've got V&H Longshots on mine. More pics available under my albums. I seem to get a lot of compliments.

Which one has the better sound? My wife had Rineharts on her Street Bob so she kind of likes about that much loud. She definitely wants something louder than her stock pipes on the Deluxe.

Figure out the overall theme for your bike and that should help point you in the right direction.
