#108326 peacemaker651 (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 38 Vance & Hines Long Shots 3 Months, 3 Weeks ago   Anyone running Vance & Hines Longshot or Short Shots. Thinking of switching pipes and I'm kinda of in a dilemma. I'm having a hard time deciding if I should go with the VH's or the HK's. I have always valued your opionions so any input will help. I'm looking for that deep crisp rumble, (The true motorcycle sound). Alot of pipes out there are loud, but they sound as is they were being echoed though a 55 gallon metal drum, if that makes any sense at all. PS. My bike is a 2007 Road* Midnight with a aftermarket Pro R Hypercharger. Thanks, Nick-   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #108327 Fire ResQ (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 284 Re:Vance & Hines Long Shots 3 Months, 3 Weeks ago   Sound is a personal taste. Can't help with the V&H pipes. I really like the sound of my BUB Big Willy's. They are just the right sound (for me, anyway).   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #108332 Frank_W (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1382 Re:Vance & Hines Long Shots 3 Months, 3 Weeks ago   I love the sound of my V&H Longshots... I like 'em a lot. A buddy of mine has a 2005 R* with the factory pipes on it, and it sounds like a Goldwing. Meh... Yuck. The Longshots are throaty, rumbly, and loud!   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #108335 peacemaker651 (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 38 Re:Vance & Hines Long Shots 3 Months, 3 Weeks ago   Are you running with or with out baffels?   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #108336 Frank_W (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1382 Re:Vance & Hines Long Shots 3 Months, 3 Weeks ago   I don't know.

We all pretty much agree that the HK's sound better including James who has the V&H's. I agree with Fire ResQ that it's a matter of taste and in the interest of fairness, one of us thinks the V&H's sound better. In my opinion they both sound similar as far as a low base or rumble but the HK's produce what I would call a softer less metalic sound. Maybe like that fifty five gallon drum with a few pillows in it or a little less raw. Just my two cents.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #108343 Clifford (User) Expert Boarder Posts: 499 Re:Vance & Hines Long Shots 3 Months, 3 Weeks ago   I have a 2003 R* with V&H Longshots and I love the sound!

Just think I would like the long straights better. Who knows, it's kinda like a haircutt, it will grow back.. LOL   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #108349 peacemaker651 (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 38 Re:Vance & Hines Long Shots 3 Months, 3 Weeks ago   Is there a big differnce in sound between the HK 2.75 and the 3 inch big straights?   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access.
