Sharp looking Roady!
I am pretty confident the FatShotz are what I am going to put on my '09 RG.

We are currently on an 8 thousand mile trip. I've listened to them all day for about 15 days and I am very happy with them. I can hear the radio and I can hear the bike.
I suspect if you change the headers from stock and/or remove the cat from the system, that the bike will be considerable louder. I ran the bike without the endcaps on the mufflers for a few minutes just to see and the bike was not much louder with the caps completly removed. I think that CAT is really quieting the bike down!
Happy riding!

I have no regrets regarding installing the Fatshotz....
I can tell you as some of our fellow riders have commented on, they are louder than stock, they have a nice crack when you get on it, yet they mellow out on the highway and the important one on the back doesn't complain, she really enjoys the tone they make.
Best BET, NO Ticket from an itchy ink finger law person and I'm riding happily.
My opinion... Ride Hard, Ride to Last and make it safe...

Well this thread convinces me this will be my next set of slip-ons. I've got all stock exhaust on my bike still, but have been toying with the idea of just a slightly throatier tone to the bike - but NOT loud as I'm not into loud pipes. These SE fatshotz sound perfect.

Over 14k on these pipes this season and they're Great!
I had these put on at the begining of the season. Ridden all over the State and then some; I have constantly received compliments on the looks and the sound. More important, the one on the back really likes them. I had the privilege to ride with one of our local State patrols on his Harley and when we stopped a few miles up the road, he was very interested in the pipes, hey guess what, since its his machine yet with state colors, he went and had fat shots put on his. Its one of those products that everyone likes, and enhances your performance as well.
My opinion: Ride Hard, Ride Safe, and most of all Have FUN!

Just a quick update...if anyone is interested...I removed the headers (too much heat for me) and put Vance and Hines Powerduals on instead. Then used the same mufflers with 15 disks and the closed end cap. The sound is louder than stock but still quiet compared to say the Monster Ovals and it has a nice deep sound that doesn't drone on ya'
Getting it tuned this month when I get to Portland...but it is putting out better performance just using the download...but I won't know how much until dyno..
