I had a 2009 SG and in stock form it was not that loud. It sounded decent, but much better after I installed some Rush 1.75 slip-ons.

I imagine it would be a bit louder...but probably not as loud as a 2009 with various aftermarket mufflers right?

I can't see it being louder than a bike with Dresser Duals or FM header or Power Duals?
