Sorry mark7, I should have added IMHO I have heard and seen in person both pipes side by side on identical Roadstars at a show and thats where I came up with my opinion which is all it is MY opinion.

Re:dual exhaust !! 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
I have heard them both. A couple of the guys I ride with have them. With the bigger cans I think the Freedom duals have a deeper tone. Both sound good, just depends what you are after. If I go with the duals sometime, I will probably go with the freedom duals myself. Depends on what kind of a price deal I can get at the time. Both seem like nice pipes.

Re:dual exhaust !! 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
In all fairness, if the price were the same I'd probably go with the Freedoms based soley on the fact that they're true dual exhaust with no crossover. But yeah, I'd want the bigger cans on 'em.

And no hurt feelings here about the comment on the sound either It's one of the most subjective things about our rides and it's the only thing that comes through when you close your eyes. I've had folks tell me they could hear me coming from a good way off and I don't even think mine are loud.

Whatever turns your crank folks, that's what is best for YOU!

Hope everyone gets to ride this weekend. I plan on doing some myself.

I'm claiming the 5th on that one. All I can say is a good deal is defined by both parties being happy with the terms....and I know I am.

He's not complaining either!

Re:dual exhaust !! 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
I always liked the dually look but didn't know they made them for the Roadstar. There isn't much information on the Freedom site that i could find. But what i could find the dually's are more expensive then Cobra longshot or Bub or whatever.
On one site there was a discussion about a loss of power with dually exhaust systems.
I'm thinking I'll end up buying the Cobra, Bub or V&H longshot until the rest of the story can be told.
This site is a great source of information. Thanks to all.

The price is kinda high but, check out this link about guys with the freedom duals RSR Freedom Dual remarks
They swear there is no loss of power with the freedom duals and even dyno'd to prove it. I have done quite a bit of research on them myself but, lost the funds to buy them to a new transmission on my truck
FYI
