    I hear ya, Scotrod! I grew up in the Southeast and like you, I still love the sound of a big V8. The home of NASCAR is literally in my backyard . Over the years though, I've had quite a few sport bikes and always added after market exhaust so I learned to appreciate the high-reving 4-cylinder sound and yes, even the tuned porsche sound . My daily driver is a tuned GTI with AWE catback exhaust. It sounds pretty good too (for a 4-cylinder).

    This thread being about slip-on exhaust systems, maybe I should mention that I just replaced my Torq Master Daytona pipes with black Rush pipes (2.5" baffles). Basically, I wanted to go with more black and less chrome which this accomplished. The tone is deeper with the Rush and the fit is considerably better. It sure is nice to have the shields close-fitting once again .

    The F6 is the only bike I've ever had where I plan on keeping the stock pipes. Every Harley I've owned in the last twenty years needed pipes to sound like a Harley (part of the Harley tax). I'm at the point where quiet, fast and stealth are for me.

    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.

    After having a few bikes with loud pipes I'm happy with the quiet sound of my F6.
