I hear that! Guess that's why I went with some Radii side slash slip-ons from the get go. And they're loud too! I like the Vance & Hines stuff, but I have to say, we do need to get on some different stuff. But to each their own.
Here's a couple pics, in case you're interested!

Default Agree with you...

...I've had my Silver Iron since June and have only flipped the mirrors and drilled out the stock exhaust with 3/4" holes...still haven't decided on the A/C, too many choices and my wallet is making the decision for me now. I am liking the new round A/C from NRHS. I will likely stick with a chrome exhaust. I am gonna go with a chrome Derby cover too, just not sure which one, and the side mounted chrome horn. I like a little chrome. As far as paint goes I am liking the Jimmy Clyde helmet so I am thinking along that theme.

Your bike is awesome dude...

Hoping to get a springer seat very soon...still undecided between the HD or Rich Philips version (which I think you have)...

The pipe decision is killing me though...at this moment I have it narrowed down to freedom performance or bub racing...
