I can now tell you that the V&H true Dual, mated with the SEII slip-on two piece mufflers sounds great.

[CVOwner]

Curious what the difference in cost is between the two. Heck, what do EACH of them cost?

the freedom true duals are 795.00 pipes only. Rineharts are about 600.00 pipes only. I'm having the freedoms installed hopefully tommorrow. We'll see how it goes.

Thanks Mike, What kind of Mufflers you going with?

2lane, not speaking for breeze, but I'm sure he is referring to the 65115-98B performance muffler. That's about the only 2 piece muff HD has with any decent sound at all.  I had those once before, and as they are made my Kerker/ST, there are a number of other options for baffles if you want to change the characteristics and it's much cheaper than buying new muffs.

I'm going with the mufflers that come with the pipes. I think the baffles are 2.5 inch. They are sweet looking and I have a couple friends who have the Rineharts and swear by them. They sound really good too. I had the V&H true dual setup and couldnt figure out what slipons to mate to them so since Freedom gets so much good reviews for performance I bit the bullet. And, my wife said the bike sounds like a singer sewing machine! She said the old Heritage sounded like a Harley and this one doesnt!

I talked to Karen at BUB and she's sending me a new support bracket, they are on back order though, should be by the end of the month. No questions asked just gave my address and she said it goes on the list.

CVOwner, above you gave price of pipes only and you told me "I'm going with the mufflers that come with the pipes." So are mufflers included in $795.00 or is that an extra $300-$500?

Any pics from someone with the Freedom setup?  Would love to see the entire set up, incl how they come out of the heads, curve back, and the mufflers themselves.....plan on getting some this week, not sure on the installation yet...

Thanks JR.  Some nice pics there.  Didn't see any pics of the pipes up close to the engine.  Does the left one have an extra curl to it to make it the same length as the right one, etc?  Giving Freedom cycles a call today to see about ordering a complete set.  Hope the PC III won't be a problem with my local dealer.  I have lifetime mx on the bike.  Taking it in for the 10000 service BEFORE installing the new exhaust system though.  Thanks again!

Ok, it's done.  Thanks to the advice and help from this site I just ordered a set of pipes, etc from Freedom.  Should have them by Friday,  looking forward to getting them installed, better looks and improved performance.....Thanks to all!! [smiley=banana.gif]

[CVOwner]

They sound Freakin great!! At idle low and mean. Hit the throttle and they sound even better. I just got them on with the racetuner and i'm in love. But, I like good sound.

Once again, the local HD dealer shows their true stripes!  Spoke with the head of the service dept last night, told me that if I installed the "Freedom package" which I just ordered a few days ago, they would void my warranty on the bike.  "...should anything happen to the engine such as pulling in a valve, etc, I would be on my own in getting the repairs done...and the repairs would be at my expense....unless they installed the package and then they MAY cover repairs but other HD dealers would probably not if I were on a trip somewhere..."     What to do?  I'll give Brad at Freedom a call but any suggestions from this group?  Thanks in advance....
