Was wondering what everyone had on their bikes, and how loud. Mine has aftermarket( not sure what kind) and are very loud. Mine also have road rash from the previous owner. So V&H ?

Check out a few clips for the sound:  If you notice, there is a lean spot when he gets on the throttle from low to high. thats what mine used to do before rejetting.

here is a stock exaust for comparison:

Neither of those are very indicitive of the sound in my opinion.  However the V&H give it a nicer lower rumble with a bark at a good throttle grab.

Do you guys think I should up my jets to 107.5?  I am currently at 105 mains and 2 total shims with K/N filter.

Do you guys think I will need to go up to the 107.5 jets after adding the exhaust?  I also just have 2 total shims.  May want to go up there too. Hmmm.. Any opinions??
