Default Big Shot Duals feedback

Hey Ya'll!. Just put some Vance and Hines Monster Ovals on my new 2013 Street Glide. I like the low sound, but I miss the "blat, blat" sound that I love associating Harley's with. What are your thoughts on the V/H Big Shot Duals?

Best!

I love mine. I personally don't think the are too small. Only thing is they are all one piece so there is no changing mufflers later without changing the head pipes too. I do like the fact that you can get different tips for them. The wife is getting the fishtail tips for me for my birthday next week.

Thank you guys for the input. Did you buy them brand new, for that inexpensive? Yes, please send me their info when you have a second.

Thank you for the input! I am heavily leaning towards getting me some! I am a little gun shy because I installed the Oval Slip Ons and am not happy with the low sound. It sounds like a truck with glasspacks. I want a Harley with the gurgle at idle and the loud aggressive sound that I had with my Sportster. Am I hoping for something that isn't possible? Orrrr... are these the answer??? Help.
