Reason I am asking is because I called Bub the other day to inquire about their new M22 slip-ons. Was trying to find out how the sound compared to regular Rinehart or Bub 7 slip-ons. The guy I talked to said they sound alot like the Brouhards.
So if ya have them (Brouhards) how do they sound??? Close to a Rinehart/Bub 7 with that deep bassy thump to 'em??? Or is it a different sound all together.
I have 'em
Deep...louder when cracked open..quiet down nice at cruising speed..have set off a car alarm or two...but I don't think they are as loud or raspy as the V&H ovals on the '03 RK I had. not nearly as loud as my buddy's rinehart pipes(true duels though)
pretty much like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ailnAcpk_4c http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ecmik...eature=related

yeah..with only 500 miles on mine though...my buddy's '03 Ultra w/duels and rineharts is quite a bit louder...but have a similar tone...deep...not sure if the volume would be the same as his if I had ture duels or not...+ his is well broken in...50,000 or so
both get pretty aggressive sounding higher up in the rpm range
I can't tell you what the Brouhards sound like but when I was looking I emailed BUB cause I was looking for the loudest slip on they had. The reply indicated the Rhineharts most aggressive, then the BUB 7 and last the Brouhards. It seems everyone has Rhineharts so I went with the 7's but I like the looks of the Brouhards best.
