Got my exhaust finished

[Grumpy]

Just finished the bike a little while ago, fired it up, sounds wicked. I like it, possibly can drown out Murphys Harley.

Yeaaaaa....   test ride time ...............

[Grumpy]

Yep, as soon as the bloody rain stops for a while.

Cool Bill.
 I'm curious how yours sounds with the mufflers being twice the length of my 9" Cherry Bombs. Is it deeper?
 Mine are a little too high pitch for me (earplugs) I would like to go with longer mufflers some day, now that I have longer cans to cover them.  Can't wait to hear them.

Managed to get about 40 miles this eve between the showers, Pipes are loud, accelerating, not bad cruising at a steady speed. Definitely a deep tone, a little popping on decel but not bad. But the good part my butt o meter says we gained some horse power, it is a lot quicker doing a roll on on the throttle.
I am as happy as if I had good sense.

I know you don't have any vacuum leaks on that hand built Valkyrie and I know you re-torqued the header bolts.
  What do you think?
 Could it be running leaner now? You running a K&N filter? Pre filter? I wound up turning out my screws some and shimming my needles. Runs like a monster, no popping, great gas mileage.

Stock filter, I was getting 37 mpg before the change. I will check the mileage this weekend. Popping is not bad, only when I drop gears slowing down. I think it is about normal for the style of mufflers.
