RE: V-Rod Sound

Sounds like a Ducati on steroids....V twin multi valve engine with a big bore and short stroke. Mine has the VMOD pipes and screams at 9k. The only sound I like better is the Destroyer at the strip.

Wow, what an old thread. To add a little here

I dont think a v-rod uses a single pin crank as with the twin cam motors

In fact the VRSC's Revolution is a single pin crank. The biggest difference is the degree of seperation, as sfarson said. The crank has to rotate farther for the second fire on the Revolution than it does on the air-cooled engines. (60 degree vs. 45 degree)

RE: V-Rod Sound

I just drilled out my stock exhaust. Sounds much better and did not cost me a cent except for the fuel management system to compensate for the increased airflow of the drilled pipes, topless mod, and SE filter.

RE: V-Rod Sound

Here's a link to different exhaust sounds/ vid clips.

So far the clossest you could get to the potato, potato air cooled sound will be from the rhineharts 2-2 staggered exhausts. There are a lot of different exhausts out there, ranging from LOUD to not so loud, either way anything is better than the stock sound imho.
