V-MOD exhaust

RE: V-MOD exhaust
I have the Vmods - they pretty much growl like a bear. They are loud enough to set off car alarms when no one else's bike will. I also have the PC III. The pipes are a very deep growling sound and decelaration is just as cool sounding. I ride with a friend who simply drilled his pipes in six places and painted the cover black - his bike is a little higher pitched than mine but still sounds good and no fuel management has been neccessary. Also, its not obnoxiously loud - sometimes mine is just too loud and it hurts my own ears. People say they can hear me coming blocks away. I think if I had to do it again I'd do the drilling..keep it simple, but loud enough.

RE: V-MOD exhaust
Hi there
V-moded my 06 Streetrod Stock Mufflers about a month ago, after first trying the drilled version 8 X 10mm holes per muffler (not a bad sound, adequate to satisfy & keep the neighbours friendly). but I had to go the whole HOG!
took a 3 inch holesaw to rear of baffle,1.3/4 inch to front.
Beautiful deep rumble[sm=lildevil.gif] , @ 3000rpm returns 94 decibels @ 1 metre 7000+rpm returns 105 - no worry from errant pedestrians now

RE: V-MOD exhaust
I have just VMODDED my pipes and added a SE Race Fueler. I am having the bike dyno tuned on Sunday, so I can give you the settings. As far as sound goes - they are LOUD. I went on a all day ride on Sunday (local Oyster run in Seattle) with a friend with a softail with Thunderheaders. The VMOD pipes are definately louder than his Thunderheaders.
If you want them louder than stock, but not as radical as VMOD, then you can drill a series of holes in each pipe. I did this to mine and ran them like that for a year before VMODDING.
Hope this helps.

I have just VMODDED my pipes and added the SE Race Fueler. I COULD NOT BE HAPPIER WITH THE RESULT.
I would be happy to share my experience with you, or answer any questions (Mark 206 852 6934)
PS Be careful if ordering a SE Race Feuler - they have listed incorrect part numbers in the catalogue - see the 1130cc forum for details

RE: V-MOD exhaust
Another Vote for V-Mods.
I've been running them for 4 years. I couldn't be happier. I like the stock exhaust look, and they sound great. I have a spare 3rd volume sitting around and I'm gonna cut it and weld it to make a 2-1 using a single stock pipe like Hal's running. If it makes good power, I'll keep it.
