I emailed Vance and Hines yesterday, because I haven't seen black anywhere. I'll post when I hear back.

At what point (engine mods) are the HO's required and needed? Is it a displacement thing, compression, head work, cams?

I'm running a 10.5 comp 98" with fully worked heads, 48mm HPI throttle body, Wild Things 26G cams. I like the sound of the pipes in the video. I don't want to choke the motor but on the other hand too much exhaust is not a good thing either.

They had Monster Rounds, Monster Ovals, and Hi-Output rounds all next to each other at the Sturgis display. I listened to them all. The HO are deeper then the rest and noticably better if you are looking for that deep deep rumble.

The Monster Rounds and Ovals are "Blue Proof" and the HO's are not. After 3 bikes and 5 exhaust systems all turning completely blue\gold I am leaning towards giving the "Blue Proof" a shot... call it vanity. If I could keep the HO's from turning blue\gold they would be my choice in a heartbeat but the Vance/Hines rep was clear that they would probably turn blue\gold.

THey do sound good and hopefully I can find the other shot with the bike straight up (new camera and couldn't shift it round since I don't have the correct software).

They sound pretty good side-ways. I wonder what they sound like rotated 90 degrees.

Now V&H make what they call a "Monster Rounds". I was wondering if they sounded as good and deep as the Ovals do.

Here’s what V&H says (but then they are selling them):

MONSTER ROUNDS
Like it’s cousin the Monster Oval, the new Monster Round produces that deep and mellow rumble that’s winning the hearts and minds of touring riders who put in the long distance miles. Perfect for enjoying your stereo on the highway, the Monster Round features blue proof technology and a CNC machined billet end-cap for an impeccable appearance.

It’s also just the right fit for CVO models with extended saddlebag skirts.

Python has them, they are called Python Predators, made by Vance and Hines. They look the same, they are the same pipe, had them on now for a month or so.
