One of the selling points of My bike was the way it sounds. I dont know qwhat kind of exhaust it is. I looked t the pipes and do not see any brand names, but dang they sound good!

they sound great, but only after you pull the inserts, clean out the steel wool packing, and drill the insert holes out to .500 inches!
then, they sound perf!!

The sound of and engine purring between my legs is what made me buy a Harley, I tried the Jap bikes but I couldn't hear a thing, I didn't know if the bike was running. The sound of a Harley is what makes my day. Just check your oil and tire pressure before each ride and your good to go.
