They sound great standing about 5 feet behind the bike when it's running! In my opinion they could stand to be slightly louder at idle and wide open throttle and slightly quieter at cruise (maybe that's not possible?), but everything considered, I love 'em. (6 into 6 pipes on the Valkyrie was just about the ultimate sound to me.)
