I have the Bassani true dual headers with the power curve. Took off the Bassani megaphones and put on Samson drag fishtails because I love the look and the sound. Yes, they are loud, lots of crackle on decel and growl when you're into the throttle. You are definitely going to lose a few ponies though, especially if that's your bike with the Reinhart pipes.
