Pipes

I just traded my 2007 Electra Glide Classic for a 2009 Electra Glide Classic.

My 07 had vanc and hines pipes and I really liked the sound.

I've me a guy who's done work on my bike for the past year and he told me he could put a set of bassani pipes on my 09 much cheaper than the vance and hines. He also told me they sound just as good.

Can anyone verify this or simply comment please.

Much thanks!

Hey Bob ---- I also have an 09 EG Classic. I have Rush slashdown slip-ons with the 2.5 baffle. I like 'em alot, but I think I might wait until you can go to a dealer on a nice Saturday morning & listen to a few bikes. (For me, up here in PA, it'll probably be April or May!) Listen to Classics & Ultras. They'll probably be a different "loud" on non-touring bikes. You can ask people to fire it up for you. They will. When you hear something you like, you'll say, "that's what I want, right there." Sound in pipes, is pretty subjective. I like my Rush slip-ons, but there are guys on here who don't care much for them. I'd say, don't do it til you can get to a dealer or a bike night, to listen.
