I had Bassani Power Curve True Duals with Bassani slip-ons on my '05 RKC and if I took the baffles out ('bout a 5 minute job) it was obnoxously loud. It was bad. I had guys ona poker run tell me they wouldn't ride behind me. Truthfully, it was a little much.

Try Thundeheaders in true duals or 2in1.

I'm using the 2in1 and there are very loud.

Why? There must be somebody you are trying to **** off or you are already deaf.

Loud doesn't mean better! And I mean that in a good way.

I put V&H big shot duals on mine and then ended up installing the quiet baffels in them. The only thing it did was deepen the sound and took out that head pearcing scream out of them.

I had loud pipes on my Sportster and Deluxe but I'm inclined to keep my new Ultra stock--I'm enjoying the stereo much more than the sound of pipes--I'm trying to talk my husband into quieting his pipes down a bit since I ride behind him.

If loud is what you want, and inexpensive too! Double D straight pipes, no baffle. But nobody will like you, and every officer of the law will watch you too!
