Default Another Samson convert

28.5" with removeable baffles Longtails

pros:
Looks fantastic
Sound fantastic
fairly easy install

cons:
need crows foot for rear U pipe flange bolt
had to buy longer bolt for coil mounting bracket because stock one was too short due to thicker Samson coil bracket versus stock

IMO the best looking and best sounding exhaust for Harley's period.

Thanks for taking the extra time and effort to post the video. Though I already have Samson's, I love to see videos, and future Cholo Heads will truly appreciate your post.

I really love the sound these pipes make. I had never heard them in person before I installed these on my bike. I had watched about every video of them I could prior to purchase and I agree what was told before, videos give a sample but do not compare to real life sound. The growling on decel is just awesome.

I am glad I decided on the pipes with removable baffles because the baffled pipes are plenty loud for me. Driving through the neighborhood at slow idle before the neighbors would hardly take any notice. Now it seems that everyone is turning to see what the heck that rumbling is coming from.
