I've tried to record the sound on my bikes before and it doesn't do it justice. I've heard those war horse pipes in person and they are bad ass. Deep and loud, people will definitely hear a bike coming up next to them. Loud pipes save lives guys.
Agreed! The volume was much higher than the video shows, so I went back to stock so my wife can hear me in our Sena intercom. But I do miss that awesome, low sound
That “pinging” sound… every Indian motorcycle with the 111 and 116 has it. These bikes make a lot of noise … nice bike brother, exhaust sounds nice. Assuming you had it tuned as well? I’m hoping to do to this to my 18 dark horse this spring.
Yeah, I can really hear it at slow speeds. No tune…I actually switched back to stock. I LOVE the sound of the Rush, but it was just too loud. My wife could never hear me on our intercoms, and my ears are too sensitive. Good luck on your mod!
The “problem” with going with lager baffles.. anything over 2.5 inches is the small loss of torque. It’s louder, sure. I’ve run back to back Dynos on several different pipes for the TS 111, and sadly… the Indian Stage 1 pipe is almost always superior. It just sucks that it’s not as throaty. The TAB bam stick with the 1.75 inch baffle gets very similar results. But again, not very loud. Once you start getting over 2-2.5 inches, there is indeed a very slight loss in Torque numbers. Probably not enough for most people to notice
After watching alot of Vtwin exhaust Videos....What guys really want to do is get rid of that Cat....On Indians its between the header and the Muffler...On HD its in the header....and on the Eluder/Venture its in the Muffler....But if you do that make sure and get it retuned.....Re flashed or Power Commander
She's a great looking lady! Have you dealt with the heat issue on the right leg? It only bothered me in stop and go traffic, here in Texas with the heat and humidity, it just knocks the spit out of ya! Sounds great! Take care, Ride Safe!
I switched back to stock. They were too much for me, and my wife couldn’t hear me on our Sena headsets. I do miss the Rush sound sometimes, but the ride is much more comfortable for me now.
Every video I watch where people change out the stock 'kalipornia compliant' exhaust sounds better... I just have to decide which pipes I'm going to get.
