Very very nice looking ride. I love the pipes and think they are exactly what it needed.

All you have to do is look at them to tell they are too loud and hurt performance.

Will sure be looking into quite baffles. Slight pop on decel but I will look into that too. Thank you all for your inputs over various threads. Pictures soon to follow.
LOL!! don't even think of riding north then! Dana Point, Laguna Beach, Newport Beach & Huntington Beach... all notorius for those tickets & non DOT helmets!!
I "baby" my bike w/ just Rinehart True Duals all the time through these areas. Your bike looks great!

Sweet ride! I wish my Heavy Breather went on easy. Mine was a PAIN! had to run to the hardware store and buy a thread tool and chase the threads. Then it went on like it should have!

I heard from a dyno setup guy that shorter pipes are better for the release of pressure, giving more HP & TQ.
Believe none of what you hear and only half of what you see.

Smaller diameter pipes will always be louder, always have always will.

Can't say much about the "Heavy Breather", sounds like a porno flick.

Your bike looks awesome. For what its worth, I was going to go with the V&H big radius and the Heavy breather combo, and the dealer that was installing my PCV and doing the dyno talked me out of the big radius and told me to keep the rush slip-ons on that I already had. He claims they dyno 500-600 Bikes per year and that #1, the heavey breather is 2hp less than a stage 1 A/C and #2 that the big radius would produce less hp and torque than what my current setup would yeild. I did keep the SE heavy breather because I dont care about 2 hp and I had already had it installed, as for the big radius it was easy to talk me out of that because it saved me $600 or what ever it was they were going for. Let us know if you put quiet baffles in and how much they help.
