Default what pipes you got?

hey fellow riders i have alittle dilemma , i currently have a nice set of python 3 pipes on my softail , these things sound low and rumble nice but i like my bike loud and these baffles do not come out without cutting them out , so i went ahead and cut my factory pipes up and took out all the packing and baffles , but now with the tips being 3inch it sounds like elephant getting an enema lol.does anyone have any suggestions on some pipes that sound and look good ,, i love the look of the big radius , but not the pice tag again , anyone want to trade your pipes for my python 3 full pipes ?

all of Samson's pipes have removable baffles. That way you can put 'em back in if you ever want to...

Crappy 13 year old rusty drap pipes with full covering wrap. Also samson baffles. Sound killer on my EVO.

I had drag pipes on my old twin cam and they sounded great.

I have a Python 2 into 1 and wouldn't trade it for the world. I am however going to be getting some 39 cholo's and depending on what riding I am going to be doing going back and forth between the two. I had short non baffled straights my last bike and it sounde wicked. If you want loud, short straight drag pipes are the way to go, IMO.

One of the reasons I bought my bike is because it already had the V&H staggered short shots on it. My favorite pipes.
