I prefer the 'baloney cut' (slash out) over the slash down models.
I think they look better (just a personal preference), to me they sound a little better (sound waves not bouncing back off the pavement), and on dirty/dusty streets and roads they won't blow as much stuff off the pavement and on to your bike.
Didn't have them on my Sportster, but I have the original 'not for road use' SE's on my Softail, and I think they sound and look great..![Wink](https://www.hdforums.com/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif)

I prefer the slash out (baloney) cut for fuctional purposes.
I live on a gravel road - half mile to the pavement.
Had downward pointed pipes on a rental I snagged for a few days last year and even just putting down the road at minimum speed the dust cloud puffing behind me was more than I wanted. The volume of air out the pipes doesn't seem that much, but when it's dry here the surface gets a little powdery and - yeeesh!!
