screaming eagle vs vance & hines Show Join Date: Mar 2007 Location: Posts: 62 Likes: 0 Received 0 Likes on 0 Posts Maybe this has been done before, if so forgive me as I am new to the forum. First off I dont want to start any bashing of one brand over the other. I just want to know everyones' preference. I have read many posts and it seems there are a lot of folks who go with the se slip-ons. I personally went with the v&s slip-ons and God knows I wouldnt change it for nothing. Just love the way they sound on my 1200. Am I in the minority with the v&s slip-ons?? Post your thoughts on why you chose your pipes and whether or not you are happy with your choice.

I swaped out for a set of v&h short shots big difference imo.

I have nothing to compare it to other thsn the stockers but man what an awesome difference. I am very happy with the choice Join Date: Jan 2007 Location: SW PA Posts: 1,819 I have CS slip-ons on,suppose to be louder than SE's.Just installed them last night and this morning when I fired the bike up it was like a whole new bike Join Date: Sep 2006 Location: Ontario,Canada Posts: 552 Likes: 0 Received 0 Likes on 0 Posts Definately V&H. The sound is amazing. Join Date: Jun 2006 Posts: 891 Likes: 0 Received 0 Likes on 0 Posts I installed V&H slip on's a while back. I originally put them on with the stock baffles and they sounded great, but they were a wee bit louder than I wanted (in consideration of the neighbors and the night rides I would take), so I bought and installed the baffles. They still sound great, just more quiet. I have not really heard the SE slip ons so I can't quite compare the sound. I did like the look of the V&H better than the SE slip ons, but that's just personal taste. It is definately amazing what difference the sound can contribute to the overall riding experience. I went on a few demo rides today and when I road a stock Softail Deluxe it just sounded weird with those stock mufflers. Join Date: Nov 2006 Location: Just north of Philly!
