Default Von Braun Exhaust

Anyone have any experience with Von Braun exhaust cans? I'm interested in their "Radio Flyers" or other models, but I haven't seen them on any bikes down here in Florida. They seem to have a good website and saw their duno runs on youtube.. I'm looking for louder cans, but not too loud, still want to be able to hear the rsio on my 2011 FLHX.

I have them on a 07 RKC. I love the sound, they aren't too loud when riding and they aren't real droney. Performance seems to be pretty good with them as well.

My buddy has Von Braun on his SG. They are cook looking and the only ones like that I have ever seen. They are the normal tube and then they come to a point on the exhaust end. The actual opening is hidden on the bottom of the pipe and they look like a "capsule" on the under side of his bags,,,kinda neet looking.

They have a nice low rumble,,,sound like Rhinehart 4" but quieter?

I've seen their ads in a few mags. I've been curious to find out if that muffler is all about design and not about actual performance. They look cool, but do they actually perform well?? Kinda reminds me of an OCC bike build. Is it form over function?

There seems to be alot of that....form before function isn't my style, If form comes before function, U loose alot of what I think is cool, performance first. If the bike is setup for a mission, I'm interested in it and how it was done... Excluding bar bike...
