    The Big Radius pipes came on my 2010 Heritage I bought used. Loved the sound. Little loud. Loved starting the thing in confined spaces like my little garage - might have lost some hearing. Felt like I was climbing on top of a WW II fighter plane and starting it.

    Had a set on my Sporty and have a spare set that I took off after buying for my 2002 Train. They’re ground thumpers, sound great but if you’re thinking of laying down miles these will fatigue you pretty bad after a full day. Earplugs are a wise decision for long trips. Also, you’re curve will move to the right, naturally.

    I honestly preferred the Big Radius 2-2 sound and look, the louder bark on start up and the rumble while idle sounded great, my 2009 Heritage came with the long fish tail pipes, they sounded great but the crossover pipe came way outside the frame, and burnt the hell out of my leg, had to remove them, got a cheap set of FDR short pipes, sound is ok, but always looking for a better set...lol

    Stock. I have 5 Harley's, the 1st 4 with aftermarket exhaust. My '20 Street Glide I left stock except for the 114 air cleaner assembly. I didn't want the added noise. Hard to tell in a video, but some V&H sound good and some just sound loud and cheap. The best way to tell if an exhaust sounds great or just loud is to ride on a bike behind a bike that has the exhaust you're thinking of buying. I have some V&H Short Shots on a 1200 Sportster that sound better when I added the 3db quieter baffles. YMMV.

    It’s possible. I would call the head of your dealer’s service department AND Harley Customer Care in Milwaukee to get a definitive answer. Apparently it can vary by case and by dealership. Order from whoever gives you the best price including tax and shipping, and remember, some online businesses will not charge you sales tax. Good luck!

    It might be my cheap crummy pixel phone but the Vince muffler seem to be a little bit tinny at times. I did like the sound but it's probably harder to compare this way as opposed to actually being there. For my electric line I love my Harley-Davidson mufflers they're not standard but they're Harley-Davidson upgrades. I love the look I love the sound I guess I just love my bike. Keep it up Tripp Even if what you're showcasing doesn't apply to my bike I like watching your videos.

    Nope that’s Vance and Hines Pipes; on my 2017 Heritage a set of slip ons were so tinny that it gave me headaches. I recommend Reinhart pipes; they are a deeper tone and somewhat louder overall. Keep in mind to get better results from the slip ons a high flow air intake and tune is required for Softail models as only the 2018 and up fatbob contains a catalyst in the head pipe. Touring models contain a catalyst as well.
