Default Really like the new pipes

Got a set of Vance & Hines pipes put on the Fatboy. Wow, what a difference, in not only the sound of the bike, which is incredible. But also in the performance. I was only a block away and I noticed the difference in horsepower. Didn't think I could love this bike anymore than I did, but I sure do now. Very impressed with this upgrade.

What was on it before? Stockers?

Looks good! A pic from the side that shows the whole set of pipes would help...

It's hard to tell from the pics, but they look like V&H BigShots Staggered.

That's what I have on my Heritage and love the sound and power.

Congrats on a great choice of pipes.

Yes they are BigShots Staggered. Great sounding pipes. Here are a few more pics. These are with a cell phone camera so bear with the quality.
