Happened to be at SW CYCLE today here in Ft Myers looking for a pair of gloves. Started talking to a new sales guy about different things. Mentioned I bought new Valk almost 2 yrs ago here. He said they just sold a blue one. He was excited about it and said they were refitting bike with new mufflers,  new intake and power commander, said this thing is going to rock.  I said muffler? I thought no one made a muffler for the new Valk. Said they were installing a set of Vance & Hines slip on. Asked made for the Valk? Appears they are for goldwing or F6B said they will stick out a little more in the back. Told him when he talked to customer at delivery to mention the VRCC site and talking to me so we can get in touch. May get  a new 1832 on board. Like to see how setup works out. Smiley

I just looked at the V & H exhaust.  Not my cup of tea in the looks department.  I will keep my oem exhaust, especially at $949.  

But check out these from Two Brothers.  That is a nice looking and sounding exhaust for $700.

This is a Bassani exhaust. Sounds good. The dyno run does not give you much to go on. This guy got a good sound clip. I like the deep rich sound  a lot of the pipes get a sharp rap. As to the new Valk the dealer is doing the mods. If warrantees are void he would have been told. Don't  expect dealer to sell new bike and say tough s#@$.

Hope they have someone skilled in modifications. Not sure about the two bros exhaust but I looked at and F6B and a Valkyrie at my local dealer and the exhaust hanger mounts are in different locations.

This is why 6-8"s has to come off the front of the Cobras Sad if not I would have a set on my Christmas list for my Valkyrie.

Guess I could always fabricate a bracket to extend our mount to meet the tab on the Cobras.
