Default Need Opinions On New Springer Classic Pipes

The Wife says the stock Springer Classic pipes are (pardon the expression) "Too Weeny." Any suggestions on some replacement pipes that can sound off?

Thanks All,

Dave

I know what you mean I had the SE's put on when I got my Classic It helped but they are still pretty quite. I'm ordering a set of the V&H Fishtail II's I hate to do this never having heard them, but Ive never heard a bad thing about them so Ill let you know when I get them, it's going to be a couple of week's though.

I think if you're going to stick to the cross overs you will have a limited selection. But if you decided to do away with it you have as many choices as anyone else. I scrapped the cross overs for V&H short shots and love them. They look and sound great IMO. Of course I understand that the cross overs may be part of what attracts a person to the FLSTSC.

You've got a bike that is intended to evoke a late '40s Knuck or pan w/spring fork. Why not put on a set of pipes that were common back then, with a little modification to sweeten 'em up sound-wise? 2 into 1 head pipes, with a straight fishtail extension. They'll sound like no other HD, and they have that still-classic look. Here's what they look like on an old Shovel FLH:
