So I have a set of Vance and Hines on my 99 drifter now.
They sound great.
One of the things I want to end up doing is either having them painted or powder coated to go along with the no chrome look I am working on.
I have seen some road house pipes though and I really like the look with the serrated section and all.
Can anyone tell me from experience how they sound in comparison to the Vance and Hines?
I would like to retain the rumble but change the look.
Whichever I go with I am planning on having them blacked one way or the other but I just think the road house has that older era feel fitting the theme of the bike better than the Vance and Hines I currently have does.
IF the Road house sound as good though then I think I am going to sell these pipes and get the Roadhouse.
Also, I dont know if the previous owner had the bike set up for the new pipes or not after he had them installed, sort of like a fuel injected stage 2 I guess?
Is there anyway I can find that out?
Either way if and when I swap the pipes myself without a power commander or other such tool can I just go to a local bike shop and have them set up to run properly with the new pipes or is that a trip to the dealer?
Thanks again for any info,
I really appreciate it.
