Welcome from Florida. There is a thread here that has a lot of sound clips from different pipes on Road stars. Good place to start looking. http://roadstarclinic.com/component/option,com_fireboard/Itemid,187/func,view/id,159496/catid,14/

Re:New Road Star owner 10 Months, 2 Weeks ago
Hey Mike - still haven't picked up bike yet - waiting for hwy bar. But who wants to ride in this damn weather - yuck. Been real busy this week and still need to talk with owner/mgr about resolving exhaust damage. Hope we can catch up soon. Meanwhile, been reading through several riding books I bought - David Hough is the best. Later.
