I would love for it to be quiet, i go to work early in the morning at 3:30 and i would hate to wake up all my neighbors every morning i start my Cane..

they do look sweet , i just want them to be not very loud.
I mainly want to lose LBS as well as gain some Chrome/Polished looks.

I put the V&H on mine and like it very much. The pipes are great and give a nice, clean look. I took off the exhaust covers so did lose some weight (although I'd lose about 15 lbs if I could just stop eating cookies).

The sound is pretty good. I don't love it but it is not bad at all. Just a wee bit reedy. The volume isn't bad either. If you're not winding it up right out of the driveway I don't think you're neighbours would be complaining.

I may replace the can this winter witha Supertrapp universal megaphone. IF anyone has any opinions on that, I'd be interested.

Oh yeah, and it does need a jet kit. I didn't do it at first and it was crappy pulling away from idle. Put in Dyno jets and its all good now.
