I put SE 65115-10's on my new 2011 RGU and it sounds very nice. Nice low rumble with a very pleasing tone.

My 99 RKC is has stock exaust on it, I herd some pipes in Jackson last year that I loved but couildn't get close enough to find out what they where, this year herd some bikes in Yellowstone that you couldn't pay me to own the pipes that where on them, so loud it hurt your ears when they started them, nothing pretty about the sound at all!!!
I think I will stick with what I have.

I have test driven many new bikes with stock pipes and have no problem with the sound, however I like the sound of my pipes a little better than stock. The pipes I have are the V&H true duals and monster ovals which were already on the bike when I bought it used. A lot of people told me that they don't sound loud enough to be a Harley. I say they sound plenty loud to me and that's all that counts. Love the sound and the looks of the monster ovals.

Ditto, I ride stock but want a deeper sound.

Had Rineharts I liked the sound but were too loud, then grabbed a set of Jackpots love em. But I threw the stock pipes back on and have been riding low for a few weeks now, I like the sound and its comforting like was said in an earlier post.

I run stockers. They sound good, especially when I open up the throttle.

2006 Road Glide that still has stock everything on motor with 40,000 miles. I probably will change this winter, along with cam and air cleaner and get a power commander.

I got my 2008 FLHTP with 4700 miles on it... the stock pipes were so quiet, I couldn't even hear the motor!

I am now happy with the sound of my Rush Slip-ons with 2in baffles and the full-sac true duals kit - sounds much better now!

I'm kinda getting use to the bike being so quite with the stock exhaust. I have about 5000 miles and I'm enjoying the peace and quite.
