Question loud pipes

Has anyone on here ever wished they had their stock pipes pipes put back on their bikes. My bike came with Vance and Hines with Screaming Eagle racing tuner. They seem to be gettint louder and louder. I'm not sure but thinking about getting stock pipes replaced on Heritage. Am I crazy or what.

I don't want stock pipes but my V&H Long Shots were set up with no baffle when I got the bike. They were just too FN loud! I put some baffles in, they are still plenty loud but sweeter in my opinion (which is the only one I care about).

Loud pipes are a pain in the ears.

Do what you want to do. You're the one that rides it.

Maybe not stock but you get get quieter pipes. I run SE2's and I don't think they are very loud at all except when accelerating. Cruising along they are pretty quiet. I wouldn't go stock though, you lose something with those pipes!
