Unless you removed the baffle from your Bassani a Thunderheader is definitely louder. I know, I've had both. Wish I had spent the extra money to put a Thunderheader on my current Low Rider.

Have you guys heard the Two Brothers exhaust? I'd definitely say it's a bit louder than Thunderheader. It's a bit deeper too. I love the sound of Thunderheader but not really how it looks on my bike.

That makes the Harley and even better deal, being that its not more than the Ducati!

My guess on why the MoCo went with the Street Bob style fender on this rather then the traditional Dyna fender is do to the world it evolved from, the West Coast look combined with the stunt rider world. Have you seen the fenders or lack there of on those bikes.
Just my opinion.
Just my opinion.

Thought we were sharing our opinions here, not being bitchy little HD cheer leaders. Don't know what bubble you're living in, but in my America we get options. Usually lots of them. That mentality is why HD continues to lose market share. And if that's what you call high performance, you clearly haven't ridden a real motorcycle.
Officially:
MILWAUKEE, April 19, 2016 ―Harley-Davidson, Inc. (NYSE:HOG) first quarter 2016 diluted earnings per share increased 7.1 percent to $1.36 compared to diluted EPS of $1.27 in the same period in 2015. Net income was $250.5 million on consolidated revenue of $1.75 billion compared to net income of $269.9 million on consolidated revenue of $1.67 billion in last year’s first quarter.
“I am pleased with how our first quarter results demonstrate the progress we’re making in both driving demand and delivering business performance in a highly competitive environment,” said Matt Levatich, President and Chief Executive Officer, Harley-Davidson, Inc.
Harley-Davidson worldwide retail motorcycle sales in the first quarter were up 1.4 percent, driven by a 4.5 percent increase in international markets. Although retail motorcycle sales in the U.S. were down slightly compared to the year-ago quarter, retail sales trends have significantly improved over previous quarters. Worldwide retail sales were driven, in part, by increased investments in marketing and new product introductions.
