Anyone know the validity of this article? Interesting if true.

Snip:

"Apart from that Vance and Hines have more than just proven their worth and built a massive brand based on high-performance, exceptional parts for the Harley Davidson Motorcycles.. Given their reputation, even without trying them out it is safe to say that the Vance and Hines Screamin' Eagle Street Cannon Performance Slip-On Mufflers will perform as advertised. That little tidbit of course, is not even worthy of an article, much less actual news … so of course there is more."

Reads less like a review and more like a press release.

 

I love that phrase.


It's like those repeated posts last month from a guy about a battery he had not tried...

anyway, axiom sells parts- so expect a sales pitch.

Was not my point about a sales pitch, rather that he is saying V&H is making these slip-ons for Harley. Has anyone ever discussed this here?

 

could be- supertrapp kerker make the fatshots and nightstick for screaming eagle and have made other mufflers for them in the past.

V&H makes the Python brand too, so I've heard.

Just thought it was interesting is all. A side affect of searching for exhaust for my new RGS. I think it will sway me into buying these because of V&H. I bought a pair of SE slip-ons for the WG and they sucked big time.

 

I've got the SE Street Cannons on my '14 FLHTK and love them. Now, finding out they're V&H (and not an 'off brand'), I love them even more.

 

So I bought them for the new bike and they are really nice!

Can't wait to do the full stage 1

 

I know everyone's taste, preference and experience vary. But for me, I don't care who makes them. I hated my Street Cannons after replacing the stock, catted header pipe with an S&S Power Tune Duals header pipe without a cat. They sounded awful and didn't tune worth a flip. I have heard they sound better with shorter end caps. I'm glad I never had a chance to try that theory because I love my Rineharts.

 

I think the header pipe is ke.y. My opinion is, stay with stock header and you'll like this combo.

To your point about the shorter end caps, that's what I have and it is perfect. Hoping the air and fuel changes won't affect my affinity for what it is now.
