Got them on my Street Bob, i,d say they sound better in a deeper way with the "quiet" baffles. If you want an even deeper sound with similar pipes ( a little longer ) go for the V&H Bigshots. The V&H pipes are well made in my opinion.

Had the V+H SHORT SHOTS on my 04 FATBOY. SOUNDED AWESOME, LOOKED GREAT. The problems started when i went to the 95" big bore, the pipes werent large enough for the engine to breath properly. So all my hp and tq went into the toilet, ended up going with V+H PRO -PIPE for the performance factor. Picked up HUGE gains.

Now have V&H big shot staggered on the '02 Heritage, instead of the Screamin Eagle slip-on's as in the sig pic (New Pic to follow eventually ). Love the sound and the 'newfound perkiness' in the bike, but, that's just me. Double check so you're sure of what you're lookin' at. As far as I remember, V&H Short Shots were the same look as V&H Big Shots except Short Shots were smaller diameter pipe.
jmho... your mileage may vary

Hey Schu... Those look like Bigshot Staggered (in fact, I'm goin' out now to make sure mine are still where they are supposed to be). Help me out here, but, isn't there a difference in 'Big Shot', 'Big Shot Staggered' and 'Short Shots' ???
Mine are still there and yours look very nice... All is well.
Happy New Year All...

I have V&H big shots on 03 heritage with sert tuning and S&S cams. She lopes and rumbles---I am not a fan of short shots, to tinny for my taste but to each his own.
