Default need some exhaust help

I use to have a road king with screaming eagle slip on and I liked the sound and volume. I now have a road king with Sampson slips on. I am using a Vance and Hines fuel pack but I dont like the sound of the exhaust. Can anyone tell me what will give a good sound and have a medium volume level?

Try searching up on youtube road king exhaust. Be surprised how many different systems people will put up there. Some are good quality, some bad. Hope that helps.

You are going to get all sorts of answers on this one,
I'm partial to Vance & Hines and I run the quieter Monster Ovals on my '03 glide and Monster Rounds on my '13 Limited.

I have a 2001 Road King that I just put Vance and Hines Monster Ovals on along with an Arlen Ness Big Sucker Stage I. In addition I also installed a PC III tuner. I am very pleased with the sound. One word of warning, I am getting some popping on deceleration and Dyno Jet suggested that I use there map for the Sampsons since they said it was very close to my V&H, so I don't know about the sound variation. I haven't modified the mapping yet, but was told to move the 0 location to -40 or -50 from 2000 rpm thru reline to correct the popping.
