It will be up to you on how loud you want it to be. Get on u tube they have almost all makes and models on there and you can here them. Also go to your dealer on a good sunny day and sit and listen to the bikes coming in and that will help you pick out the right one.

yes, go to a bike night or other event and see what appeals to you.

results will vary greatly depending on the header used- your's has a catalytic converter in it which greatly affects to sound

I'm a big believer in Fullsac. Great headers and slip-on options. Like the sound and the increased power that comes with the full systems and a good tune. There's so many options so it really comes down to the the sound you like and want. Louder sound does not mean increased power,

man i still stand by cycle shack pipes....got a brand new set for $150 and they sounded way better than the screamin eagle 2's which my friend had. Looked great, no install issues. Not on my current bike but had them on a sportster i sold last year. Cant beat the price. I guess if your loaded with $$ i would say a nice set of vance and hines straight shots are good too.

I thought cycle shack closed up/retired??
But anyway, go look and listen to as many bikes as ya can find and pick what floats your boat if sound and/or looks is your thing. If ya want performance look at lots of Dyno sheets but just slip-ons on a stock motor will make little/no difference you can feel on a stock bike.

This loaded question is akin to what's the best oil. If there was a clear-cut answer, there wouldn't be other products on the market.
I went with Rinehart. (and S&S headpipe) Not saying they're the best, but it's what I wanted.
