TOPIC: New Exhaust Mod...now with Comparison!

New Exhaust Mod...now with Comparison! 9 months 6 days ago #1

Hey All, it's been awhile since I've done any mods to the Vmax...so it's time to change things up a little! Since I've bought the 09 Roadliner and put some 14" Apes on it (really comfy), I've really spent a lot of time riding it and figured...this will be my long distance hauler. So, the Vmax has kinda turned into the "bar hopper/quick run" machine...so I don't really have to worry about the "noise factor" wearing me out. I have Dale Walker's Holeshot Exhaust installed (with the 10" Bad Boy Mufflers) and Dale makes a great system...no doubt about it!! But, I decided to AMP it up some!! I've done just a test fit on the right side using some resonated exhaust tips by Pacesetter. They're the 4" Big Bore Monza Tips...10" overall, 8" Baffle (if you can really call it that). I just fired it up and man...it sounds absolutely VICIOUS!!! I've took some pic's with my phone (sorry about the quality, left the camera at work). I'll be posting a video soon with a Go-Pro!

Here's the Go-Pro video for the 10" Bad Boys...Here's the comparision!

Yup...Po-Po around here are pretty easy going! If you're on a cruiser...they really don't care or give you another look. They're after the sport bike riders mostly...	Jetman OFFLINE Senior Max Posts: 495 Thank you received: 200

Not sure...but it's gonna be loud! These are not mufflers I'm installing...they're just automobile exhaust tips with resonators.	Jetman OFFLINE Senior Max Posts: 495 Thank you received: 200

Here's a clip of the Gen 1 I had....loved it! It's a UFO Exhaust that I modded, man I miss how that bike sounded!! I don't think the Gen 2 can be done to sound the same....but this is the sound I'm after!	Jetman OFFLINE Senior Max Posts: 495 Thank you received: 200
