The Bassanis are quite a bit louder than the Monsters. And more so when you get on it.

I had a pair on my 03 for about a month. Very deep and sounded good, but they are loud. Guys riding behind me said it was like standing under an Apache Attack Chopper...

WHUMP! WHUMP! WHUMP! WHUMP!WHUMP! WHUMP! WHUMP! WHUMP!

You could FEEL them in your chest.

My thinking at the time was "what good is a stereo when you cant hear it?" So I took them off. I really did like the sound, but its one of those, after a few hours, my ears were ringing all day...type of things.

 

I've got bassani true duals and slipons. Mind you, they are not the reverse cones, they are the slant cut ones with 2.5 cores. sound sweet at idle, can actually talk to the scoot beside you in traffic, but when you get on them, you can set off car alarms from the left lane, I've done it. Running down the road they aren't too loud, you can actually hear your passenger talking to you. From what I've heard they are louder than the ovals when you roll on the throttle. You might want to give those a look.

 

Rick, keep the V & H. Throw the baffles in the garbage and get you a set of the Big City Thunder baffles that go in the head pipe. Thats what I did and the sound is just evil. Good luck man

 

Listen to him. I got'um in mine. Loud when you want it loud. Mellow when you want it mellow.

 

Used to have big city's on my fatboy.Didnt even think of it for the monsters.Into the headpipe?

 

Yep, they have a small baffle that fits in the head pipe. It goes at the end of your head pipe just before your muffler. I installed mine in the garage and fired it up... Holy crapp man. Just evil. Sounds like an evil hot rod. Just an option.

 

Do you have V&H True Duals in addition to your Monster Ovals? If you do, what part number was the BCT baffles you installed in your true duals?
Thanks

 

I have the Klock Werks Double back header on mine. Give them a call. Very helpful lady that handles the calls and she really knows what shes talking about. Tell her your set up. Good luck

 

I have bassani's with the power curve and I like the sound. My buddy's always comment that at idle they sound good but once I hit the gas they get nice and loud.
