I don't know how they sound but you wanted black and the price is right for these babies!! Besides, they are straight pipes, so gonna be pretty loud..

You can't get those anymore, they've sold out all stock and no longer produce them. You might get lucky and find some obscure internet parts pusher that has a set on the shelf but from all the posts I've read on here I think they are very scarce.

i have short shots on my 08 N-Train with the baffles out...VERY LOUD and when you let off the gas all the way after being on the gas hard it makes a cool jake brake sound....love the sound and the look but I want to sell them and buy a 2-1 VH Pro pipe to pick up some HP and TQ. Mine are chrome but if you wanted I would sell them cheap. Send me a PM if you are interested.

Here is something else to think about when purchasing black pipes for your bike:
I don't know about the other companies that produce pipes in black, but with the V&H pipes, the ceramic coating can only be cleaned with warm soap and water and they cannot be touched up if scratched. I rode in the rain the other day and something got on my Big Radius pipes that I can't get off with just soap and water. I emailed V&H and they basically told me I'm SOL. I have to live with it. Had I known this when I shelled out the money for them, I would have thought twice. They look cool, yes, but they are an awfully expensive pipe to not be able to buff up when you need to, unlike chromed pipes. You may want to do some research and see which company has the most "cleanable" pipe, in addition to being super loud, but I suspect they all use the same coating or something similar.

I went the Short Shout route, really like the sound and after I got my SERT the power is all I could ask for. I thought about black too till I seen some that had been run for a while and not being able to clean them with anything but soap and water they loose there look. Besides a little shine ain't too bad.
