Ok I'm down to my last straw on which exhaust. I'm torn between Vance Hines power duals with the RC calibur slip ons or the D&D fat cat. I want a deep throaty mellow sound. Which one?
My fat cat ain't mellow. It's a loud, aggressive, mean sounding pipe. The performance is the same. Kinda sounds like a big block Chevy.I have the performance baffle. Deep throaty mellow sounds like my old CFR'S. But I'm not to sure on the mellow part. They very fairly loud. I had the on the stock "cat" head pipe.
which baffles on th RC pipes you looking at?
Worst sounding pipe ever! It's got a hollow, tinny fart can sound. Think of Honda Civics with coffee can exhaust and you get the idea. Obnoxiously loud and a decel cackle that attracts the popo like flies to a dung heap (fitting since thats what it is).
I know a lot of guys that have em like em. A lot don't. I hated mine!
CFR's are loud as hell. I had them on my Streetglide for less than 30 miles and had enough. I was on the interstate for 10 miles with a full face helmet and when I got off I couldn't hear for a while. They do sound nice...... On a bike other than mine. I put a set of RCX's and love them. I like the idea to be able to change the tips when I get bored of the same look.
