I'm thinking about V & H Bigshots got them on my other bike and my wife's bike. I really like the sound I was just wondering if there was anything out there for a little less $$$$
Personally I think the True duals sound best at idle.. Not sure I would want to ride with them is why I went with the Jackpots AGAIN. I done over 12k miles with my previous bike (dyno tuned Jackpots) with some 500 mile days. They sound good but do not overide the the radio unless you want them to. I made the radio comparision as a unit of measure because everyones hearing is a little different. If you don't listen to a radio then I have no advice other than loud without drone.
Sounds, smells, sights, touch, taste, all personal interpretation values... as many stated above.
I like the sound of a well tuned v-twin running CFRs.... but I'm not gonna spend the money to both purchase and get 'em tuned... three of my favorite tuners all independently said they are a pita to tune... and two of the three said they wouldn't take my money to try again and have less than desirable results....
I've talked with guys running CFRs and they love the sound, but are not completely satisfied with the tune either...
But what do I know.... I just ride.... and enjoy the sound of my de-catted and de-baffled OEM system.... best sound for the bucks I've found (and I am a recovering pipes junkie)...
