Default Python slip ons

Currently have some V&H straight shot slip ons,but really like the slash cut look. Just ordered some Pythons and was curious if anyone has any opinions on them. Going on my 2005 1200C btw. Thanks in advance!

I had the python 3 slip ons on my old bike. It was a 2008 sporty. They were nice pipes. Pretty loud though, I set off some car alarms off unintentionally. I would definitely look into them if I were in the market. I have thunder header 2-1 pipes now and love those as well.

I rode with a buddy who had the 3" Python Mambas slip ons on his 09 Custom. I have the Cycle Shack slip ons on my 13 Custom. Both are equally as loud but I liked the Pythons better because they had a deeper tone. IMO both are loud enough to get you noticed in the lower end by the distracted cager but level out nicely on the highway at cruising speed. They are loud but that's kind of the point.
