Nightster Side Shots
Does anyone have Vance and Hines Side Shots on their bike? I'm thinking of getting them. A friend of mine said the sound bounces off the ground. Tell me what you think of them. Thanks!!
I added a photo of what they look like.

FyrFtrMistress, V&H pipes are soooooooo outplayed on the Nightsters and especially the black denim Iron bikes! Do your homework and spend some time investigating the other brands/designs and you might find something else that will help your bike to be more "you" than everyone elses.
*edit - my apologies FyrFtrMistress, the Side Shots are different than the Short Shots by virtue of a "power chamber" which enhances performance that is not present on the Short Shots seen on tons of Sportsters. Sorry to have misled you in that respect. Andy.

But, If you truly can't find ANY other exhaust you like, then go right ahead and buy them. It is after all, your bike.

Agreed, so sick of seeing V&H on every damn bike. I bought them a few years ago for my Wideglide and realized it was a bad choice after seeing how many people actually owned them.

If you are fond of your hearing, I would stay clear of sideshots or shortshots. I have shortshots on my bike with the quiet baffles, and the smartparts baffles on top of them, and it's still too loud. I like a nice harley rumble as much as the next guy, but these pipes are rediculous

I cannot think they are a bad choice just because a lot of people own them, something about them must be good. I do agree however that getting something that makes the bike you is a better idea. I am personally looking at the basani and Samson brands for my pipes. Very similar style but also some varied lengths that I wanted.
