36 inch straight fishtails no baffles, wouldn't have it any other way. I strayed with 3 other sets but ultimately the fishtails win.

I had them on my 05' Softail Springer. I woke up every car alarm everywhere!


I agree on a Road King and certain softails they just look like the most prefect pipes.

I went back and forth anout Sampsons, I just wasn't sure if un baffled pipes would be too much and if their baffled pipes would be too quiet. I went with V&H, with removable baffles. Funny thing is, I have them for 2+ years now and have yet felt the need to pull the baffles.

I got rid of this in several years ago. But here it is at my local dealer, the new owner getting some service work.

I will say, this bikes still sounds good and he only put about 6000 miles on it since I got rid of it. I ALMOST bought it back but the PO didn't call me, I told him I would give him $500.00 more then the dealership wanted. I guess he got lazy and didn't want to mess with it.

Later the dealer wanted to jack the price up, and I declined. Bummer for me!
