I just put my V&H slipons on a couple days ago and I love them, but they are louder than I was expecting. My neighbors wont like me for much longer.

Put SEII's on the wife's 06 XL1200. Popped the baffles out and man that thing is L-O-U-D, but it sounds really good. I'm a little jealous now.

According to the guy I got mine from these are suppose to be louder than SEII's,they still have the baffles in,but I haven't heard SE's personaly either so couldn't tell ya' + I think I have to wait for the break-in miles to happen before I can install them?
