My Torq Master King Snakes has never had the dreaded droan. Might be the extra length. Don't know why but they have just had a mellow sound since day one. They are just a bit louder than stock.

Been there, Done that!! Stock and staying!
I'm content with the OEM sound,,, The cadence of a 6 cylinder,,, any 6 cylinder,, really doesn't excite me, so no real need to go beyond a smooth purr,,,
STOCK say what you want but you aint getten a great sound out of the F6. It's like putting AM radio on the best speakers out there just isn't happening
I know what you're saying, Fast Eddie, and I agree, our 6's will never sound like a big v-twin or a Boss Hoss . OTOH, it is possible to get an exhaust note that some might really like. How about a "tuned Porsche" sound? That can be like exhaust "music" to many of us, don't you think? Anyway, for those of us that just can't leave things alone, the search to make our ride "special" continues .

It's all a matter of taste, but my Valkyrie sounds like a beast and gets a lot of attention from the non initiated Harley riders. Cobra 6 into 6 pipes, sounds better than any V-twinky any day. Aren't you guys bored with the kool aide drinking , me too sound of those V-twins? I hear another one go down the road and just yawn. Same ol s^%*, different day.
As far as my F6B, I'm tempted to leave the sound alone. Kinda like the quiet for a change, but I'll probably spice it up soon.
My pipes on my old bike sounded better than Harleys -- according to the HD riders I ride with -- but they were wide open all the way through.
I've heard more than once that it's almost not worth the effort to monkey with the pipes on the F6B and try to get a ROAR out of 'em because it just isn't going to happen. I've looked at the Cobra slip-ons and the V&H. They're louder, but it's still not where I'd like it, so I don't see the point of spending the money for it.
Has any of this changed since this thread was first posted? Thanks.
