Make up my mind please (exhaust)
Last decision I need to make for the current build before I can get back on and ride.
2006 Road King.
S&S 98" kit
Feuling hydro cam conversion kit
Feuling Reaper 543 cams
Powervision
I have narrowed down my picks for exhaust to V&H Pro Pipe Black and Bassani Road Rage B4 black.
Im aware of the other options. D&D being the popular one, thunder header, dragos etc. I don't care for any of the others I've seen except D&D and Fuelmoto Jackpot. But those, being my top choices, are of course not in stock and a substantial wait for them to be. My bike gets finished at the shop sometime next week and I need an exhaust by then.
Sooo, b4 or pro pipe? I want people to know I'm next to them but not so loud I hear it ringing when I shut her off. I want performance levels to be decent throughout but definitely strong low to mid range.
I have listened to both on YouTube but the B4 is limited and mostly on other model bikes so it's hard to compare sound wise. I cannot find any dyno sheets comparing the two or even alone with a similar setup to mine.
If you had my bike, would you spend the $ on the Pro pipe or the Road Rage b4 and why?

I just did a cam upgrade to my TC96, and the exhaust sounds even better now when I twist the throttle hard.
I am sure there are better looking slips on out there, but the Fuel Moto stuff seems well designed and performs.

Not the brand you want to hear about...but I installed the Dragula II on my '14 RK (103ci) this year. Got a MAP from Frank Dragos for my PV-2.
I am very happy with the looks, performance and sound of this exhaust. I did a 1,000 mile trip after the install. No backfires or problems. I had no problem keeping up with a 2013 RK CVO (110ci). However, I don't know if the black finish is currently available...however the chrome finish is very nice.
