What you're talking about are "drag" pipes, they have no mufflers or baffles in them it's just straight off of the head. In some states they're illegal.
These aren't the stock Harley exhaust. Factoid: Harley Davidson has a patent on their stock exhaust note!! Scott A. Stewart, Web Application Developer Engineering Consulting Services, Ltd.

They sound like you stuck your head inside of the exhaust of an 18 wheeler. In my mind they're just plain noise pollution and should be banned. Now, I'm all for loud pipes that are 'reasonably' loud (say 90-100db), but something that can be heard over a pair of 68,000 lb thrust pratts is too loud. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:167499 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
