7 beers? How many swear words? That's how I measure time, "it took me 15 curses to get (insert project) done"

I ran V&H staggered when they got damaged in my accident (hit and run ) After the rebuild I went with the Python Dual Staggered with the chamber. I honestly coultdn't hear a difference in sound at all. I liked the saving of the Pythons. They were $150 less than the V&H and are identicle except for the rear where V&H has interchangeable tips and the Pythons do not. Again I like the Pythons better for that reason due to they looked cleaner in my opinion. Sound at idle or warming up wasn't to loud which was great for my neighbors. When I rolled into the throttle it made a great deep throaty sound. I would recomend them for looks and performance to anyone who is interested in saving a few bucks over the V&H. They are the same exact pipe. Even the baffles were the same as my V&H's. My bike with those pipes made 72hp and 80torque (1996 Fatboy 80" Evo, andrews ev27 cam, Dyna 2000 ignition, mikuni 42 carb, arlen ness big sucker stage 2 air cleaner.

Here they are with that set up I just described:

I have Python IIIs on my 1986 FXSTC. A little louder than the Cycle Shack pipes they replaced.

The Python pipes I had on my '03 Superglide T-sport were great. The sound was deep and very unique, and they polished up nicely. If I replace my S.E. exhaust on my Elctraglide I would not hesitate to buy Pythons for it.
