Default Big radius pipes on a Bagger??

I've been toying with the idea of the V&H Big Radius pipes on my 06 Ultra....has anyone put these on a bagger?...If so how are they for sound and how do they look? I'm kinda torn...thinking the baggers would look odd without the symmetrical look of duals under the bags....so if you got em...lets see em!! Thanks Guys!

A friend of mine just put them on his bike, but since we are still stuck in winter hell .........I haven't seen it yet.

I think it looks great from behind with no pipes at all out the back, and if they sound as good as they do on other bikes then I'm sure they will sound great on a bagger.

Here is a Co that puts them on all their baggers. They look great on baggers, I almost went that route. I only went with the Bub 7 TD because I think they will look better with extended bags. ( Also like the sound better) They sound just like any other Harley with them on.

I've got the V&H Monster Ovals, but no pixs. Sounds great imho and they look okay to me.

I personally love them. They look great and sound awesome, I'm just concerned that they wont perform as good as a two into one. I'm willing to make that sacrafice.

Here is a link to a youtube video with a set on an 09 Road King with SERT and Heavy Breather. Sounds Great.

They make it look like a real Hot Rod to me.
(and they open the rear rim up, if you have custom wheels.

I've seen a few around Daytona, I think they sound good just can't get used to no pipe coming out the back.

hi

i am a week away from getting the Stage II 103. I am thinking of getting the V&H Monsterovals instead of the SE street legat touring mufflers. How do yo like the sound of the MOs? I have only heard them on sound clips on the computer, sure sound good thought and was told they also improve performance over SE pipes.

Can youtell me how you compare them to the original HD stock muffler.

thanks

jim
