The problem I have with most of the harley owners is that they can actually afford them. So, when they want to change something, $779.00 exhaust system, they just keep buying until they get it right, as in toys. When you have to try and afford everything else(food, rent, furniture, etc.) in order to own a harley, the simplest changes are a monumental expense. Like for example, putting on a new set of $75.00, 14" bagger apes, costs $950.00 to $1100.00 out the door. So we learn how or do with out. Keep up the research and get what you truly want. This mistress is high up keep. Sorry, stepping down from my soap box now.

Can't beat the look of Rineharts IMHO, but I am a little disappointed with stock or standard baffle. I think it was for the 07 and 08's that Rinehart redesigned their exhaust system. They now sell a standard baffle (came stock with my true dual system), a quiet baffle, and a high flow performance baffle. Keep in mind the year of the bike and whether the system or mufflers you looking at may have been redesigned when you consider your options. While I still think your best bet would be to go to your local bike night find out what sounds best to your ears, it still may not be a true indication of what to expect. An example of this is my co-workers Rinehart's on his 05 Road king sound quite a bit louder than mine.
