Got 2012 RKC coming and I am thinking of going with V&H Power duals and the RSD Tracker slip-ons. Anyone out there running a set up like this. I love the look but am a little concerned that they may be excessively loud.
Help please.

On a scale of 1-10 that setup will go about 7-7.5 volume wise.

But don't ask me, ask the guys behind me.
Thanks Primo, yours is the only touring bike I have seen with the tracker slip-ons and when I saw it I said to my self Dam that's the look I want. I just thought that seeing it had been 2.5 years since your original post there may have been more running that setup. I am fine with a 7.5 rating so sometime in the next six weeks there will be a RKC running those!!
I was running them with Power Duals but returned them when my Indy offered full credit after a year or so of use.
Loved the look, sound and uniquenss of these slip-ons but the chrome on the billet tips kept bubbling up and flaking off. V&H sent me replacments twice free of charge but the issue kept reoccuring so I finally gave up.

Thanks for the heads up Bgill. I have fired off an email to V&H technical regarding your situation so we will see what/if they reply back! My bet is "gee that's the first we have heard of it" but time will tell.
