Thanks everyone's or your inpu! I'm leaning towards the Eddie Trottas. I agree you do see the VH alot and I think the eddies would look crazy. I'm gonna put the black RSD timing cover on as well. I think they would go well together. I like loud pipes long as they sound good and these do. I'm young in my state of mind at least but understand where your coming from.

I can't find the Eddie trottas for my '13 blackline, otherwise I'd be all over them!

I should say that although the Bassanis are louder, they have a very deep and none head racking time. The V&H were higher pitched and more of a headache even though they were quieter.

Im going to have to +100 on Bassani Firesweep, and the kick out at the end sends the noise away from the rider which is a little bonus for the hearing conservation.
