You do not need to make noise in order to make power. Especially on a stock motor.
Maybe I should switch to a QB. I know a good tuner can fix all this, but he is getting a Thundermax so I thought i would let him know. I don't bother chasing numbers either, but I did pretty well keeping up with a new CVO 110 today. LOL. And, I slept at a Holiday Inn express last night.

LOL....

All I'm saying is that loud bikes generally are slow bikes. You can make a lot more usable power with a reasonable pipe and baffle than you can with drag pipes.

No doubt about that. You should have seen the look on my face when I switched from wide open fishtails to a fatcat.

I do love the look of fishtails on the right bike.
