Well I put on and it wasn't that tough to do and I took some pics but my file is too big to upload. Any way, I rode it a few ago and I can feel a pretty big difference in the bikes attitude. It seems as if it wants to come up a lot easier but that could be related to the weight loss from the stock muffler. Now, for anyone who may be considering the D&D, ITS VERY LOUD! Now loud doesn't bother me as all my stuff is pretty loud but this thing is off the charts. Is this common with these pipes? |

The D&D is stupidly loud, its easily one of the loudest (if not the loudest) pipe available for the bike. No joke, running open headers is quieter. |

Even for people who like loud, the DnD is TOO loud. I threw mine in the trash. |

Maybe try repacking it and finding something to quiet it down some, maybe an insert? |

Well I took the end off to look inside the pipe and it seems to have all the packing in it. I have a plan, I have a set of Carbon Arrow pipes from my SuperHawk that look as if I can modify one to fit where the 2 to 1 comes together. Should I get it to work I will post pics some how. |

I bought an HMF a few months back and recently installed it. When I was researching slip-ons, I didn't want one too loud and was told by many that the D&D was louder than the HMF. When I fired the bike up with the HMF on it, I was shocked how loud it was, followed by the thought: "how freakin loud must the D&D be?". |

The HMF is la bit loud when the bike is warming up. After that, it settles in to a nice rumble. I go by LEO's all the time...They don't even stop chewing their doughnut... |

My dealer had a CR with the D&D pipe by the front door and it was so loud that even the "hard core" bikers flinched when it started. |

I must say that I am tossing the idea around in my head to sell the one that I have. I really like the sound, but now that I have the OEM pipe I am liking it too. Am thinking about going with the D_Adams type 1 muffler. |
