Default Python exaust???

Hows it going fellas? I just purchased an 05 FatBoy today!.I pick it up wed.My question is
my bike is still in the crate and from going with recomendation of service mgr and a few others

I am having Python exaust with stage 1 kit for the FI. He told me the sound is great and pretty
loud.So im having them put on sound unheard so to speak and Im nervous.I hope this is a
good setup.Please give me your opinions.Im not after performance as much as sound.He
told me its very comparable with the V&h big shots staggered.He said v&h makes the Pythons.

Thanks in advance guys,Ray

I thought I had Pythons on my new 2001 Night Train. Went to see it today (I get to pick it up Tuesday), and it actually has Hookers. Sounded soooo good, an LOUD.

Best advice is to go to your dealer and ask if they have any bikes with them installed (new or used) and listen to them. You can get somewhat of an idea on the Vance & Hines website where they have a link you can click on to hear them. I just installed V&H Bigshots on mine and they sound awesome!

Well dude your in luck, I have the same pipe's on my Heritage, they look awesome and sound awesome, I am thinking of putting the quiet baffles in not because it's to loud but because it deepens the tone a little and create's a little more back pressure which in turn give's a little more bottom end, but I am very happy with my pipe's.
