Not happy with my 2-1
I'm sure this is a dead horse around here but I'm a newb so bear with me. I could give a damn if I gain or lose 1/10th of a hp or torque anywhere in the curve with any exhaust. I don't race this thing. I love the way my exhaust looks but I've never been completely happy with the sound. It's plenty loud, which is fine, but it doesn't have the deep bass sound that I'm after. It has more of a pitched bark.
Suggestions for the bike?

the only explanation i really have is that different exhausts sound different... i changed the 2-1 on my touring bike and put true duals on it because 1. i dont really care about going .2 of a sec faster when accelerating 2. i liked the sound the duals made.
dont get me wrong, some 2-1's sound good, and some TD's sound like hammered ****.
for what it's worth, i had a friend with supertrapp x-pipes on his bike, looked killer, sounded like a derby car missing on 3cylinders.

Agreed with above. A longer pipe will give a deeper tone. I can't see a pipe that short having a deep rumble. I think of Supertrapp as quiet pipes as well. Never have heard one of those though. Whatever you decide let me know and I can get you what you need at a great price.

This one is anything but quiet. That's for sure. haha Everyone else seems to like them so I'm thinking of keeping them for shows rather than sell them. If I ever cleaned it enough to enter one..I ride this thing everywhere when I'm home. Personally, the 2-1 on mine gets obnoxious after a while..it's an in your face kind of sound.
The only 2-2 I've found that I really like so far (looks wise) is the rinehart crossbacks. I'm going to hunt for some sound clips. My bro-in-law has their slip ons on his 95" and they sound mean. I've heard their true duals on a friend's road king and they were impressive as well.
For 2-1s I really like the style I have because it's very uncommon, just maybe a little longer and faced down and/or out instead of up. Before anyone suggests it, I don't like the V&H one. Also don't want to compromise my woman's right foot. The one on it now can get a little toasty
