Samson fishtails on ultra

Hello who is running Samson fishtails on a 10-12 ultra with CAT still in head pipe? Are you running with baffles or without? How do they sound? Do you have any pics so I can see how they look? I had them on my 03 RKC and loved them thinking about putting them on my 11 Ultra not ready to remove CAT yet... Have SE airkit and stage 1 download.

Thanks
Joe

I asked about fishtail a awhile back, they are not very popular. I was able to hear both samsons and V&H at a rally. The samsons were unbaffled on an 88" softail, and they were loud. the owner said his ears ring after a highway ride. They did sound great, but too loud for me, I don't want ringing ears. The V&H sounded nice as well, but they were on a 96" (not sure if the sound would differ on my 88") not as loud, and they are what I'm leaning towards, if and when I buy a set. I love the looks and the distinct wah wah wah sound.

good luck with your research.

I have Vance and Hines true dualls with supper trapp with mikuni race cores with fish tail. I get a lot of thumps up on the sound and look. It give my RKC the classic look I like.
