Black--I'm biased, and although "everyone" has the Short Shots--I love em. Must be a reason why--look good, sound good, fit good, and actually performed much, much better on a SERT Stage 1 tune than imagined. Will post those dyno runs soon.
Black looks pretty damn good on rattlecan ray's bike. There's a reason why so many bikes are sporting the short shots. They look awesome and sound mean. I like the way the black looks with the blaked out motor behind it, but the chrome might pop real nice too. Hard to say. so many choices make it even harder. Good luck.
I was set on the black but every 48 that I've seen (black, silver, orange) w/ shortshots all have the black version so I am going to order the chrome version for my silver just to be a little different.
chrome , but short shots are soooooooooo common , im sticking straight shot slip,ons on my nightser , not because there better and cheaper , but because every one i know with a nightster or iron ,goes with black shorties ,
