It's got a cam in it . It's not the volume their plenty loud enough, it's just that I think they sound more like a car than a bike. IT reminds me of my 34 ford street rod. I'm not saying it's a bad sound,I know I'll get used to it in time. One good thing is I won't have to have my volume so high on my music. Plus they really do look like they belong on my bike.

I should have been more detailed in my post. Certain cams will hit harder depending on their grind and not necessarily change the volume but will affect tone. If that makes sense.

Look man I'm not saying rineharts are bad,they have a nice deep sound,but to me they sound more like a car sound than a bike ,that's all I'm trying to point out. Maybe my Vance and Hines were a little bit to radical,but I can tell you this with my engine mods when I fired that sob up everybody in the parking lot looked. But I just had to fill those cut outs in my bags and I really do like the looks of the Rineharts. If you think they are the greatest thing since sliced bread than I'm happy for ya.

Well there now I do not believe I have made any reference to having a preference on any exhaust let alone these Rineharts. I was and still am specifically trying to help you by suggesting what a difference an aggressive cam will make to an exhaust note is all. Good luck with your endeavor.
