It's always nice to be able to hear something before you buy them. I just put Vance & Hines High Output slip-ons on my 103 Ultra. Amazing deep throaty bagger sound. Alot of Harley dealers carry them, so if you find a large dealer, you might be able to hear a bike that has some on. Other wise, bike night, a dealer on a nice Saturday morning, etc. Also, try this. Go to Youtube, type in Vance & Hines High Outputs, put on some headphones, and listen to them on that orange Streetglide. I know it depends on the microphone they use to record the pipes, but that orange bike is exactly what mine sound like on my Ultra. Nobody has a problem riding behind me either.

Thanks Orbit.

Probably the nicest muffler video I've ever seen.

I called FuelMoto today and chatted with Keith. I think my plan is as follows:

- try the 3.5" DynoTuned from my Ultra on the Road King to see if the sound is what I'm looking for, if yes, then order another pair with balanced baffles to match up with the Cobra duals I have on it

- if that doesn't get what I'm looking for, Keith quoted me a pretty decent price, $499, for the SuperTrapp fishtails

I want to deal with FM as much as I can, I trust them, they have never steered me wrong. If I get into the whole "disks in the pipes plus PC III tweaks" conversation, I'm pretty sure they'll get me straight.

Thanks for the feedback folks, I'll let you know how it all plays out. Probably gonna be a bit though, got some work travel coming up.
