I's a tight fit but you can get to it. My brother has V&H and it's the same way.
I keep one of those brown cotton gloves in tail bag to check the oil went it's hot.

I went with the Speedsters because they have a built-in crossover like the big shots and they extend to the end of the swing arm. I also bought the quiet core baffles. I had V&H straight shot slip-on's with quiet baffles and I could feel the mid range power difference was much better on my bike.
Agreed. I also have the Speedsters and love'em!

Default Good Product

I have Cobra slashcuts on my 2011 Wide Glide. They sound great and look awesome. I recommend them.

I have had the Dragsters for 3 full seasons. Louder each year, or seems so, but a nice med deep tone, not "tingy" sounding at all. They are loud if you are twisting heavy. The heat shields and chrome holding up great. My Woods 555 cams and tune increased the decibels quite a bit.

Those look real nice. I like the longer length but I hate pipes that are too loud. I have Rush long series and like them a lot. They are ceramic coated with fuu length chrome heat shields. Might want to check them out. Good luck.

I asked my wife if I should remove the baffles because my friends bike is louder and she told me not to. I already have to roll it down the driveway and halfway to the first intersection to start it(glad its downhill). My son will wake up he hears it, most of the time my wife still knows what time I left.

Not sure of the quaility of V&H on just pipes,it was junk on both my Buell's cans!
No disrespect, but you asked your wife about pipes on your Harley? Something about that statement has to be breaking some sort if guy code.

Yep I ran the baffles, they seemed to have good performance no hesitation down low or anything like that. I cant comment on how they are vs. stock because the stock pipes were long gone by the time I bought my bike. I sold them on ebay about a year ago.
