Default rocker exhaust question....
I want to change the pipes on my rocker. I like the looks of the Road Rage pipes by Bassani but know nothing about them. I'm not really interested in which pipe makes the most power. On this bike, I would like a pipe that's not too loud. More interested in a rumble. Something louder than stock but not a nuisance. Anyone have a suggestion?

Bassani's are great pipes. Not too loud, but sound is all subjective. I have their 2 into 1 on the sg.

Hawaii-Five-Jo, how is it that your exhaust is on the left and your stand is on the right?

I've got that pipe too and it was pretty tame until I did the motor and now I've got some tone and volume..
