I say a thread yesterday about these guys. Just wondering if anyone out there has used them and do they deliver the workmanship and sound they say they do.http://www.vtxexhaust.com/vtx-c.php

They did the work on my VTX 1800c last year and I think this is better than the aftermarket exhaust I used before. Sound is great, looks are great and performance also great. If this is for the C model have them do the short version, looks a lot better than the longer stock version.

Thanks, I have a 1800N, I am looking for that deep rumble and the sound bites on the site don't help. Maybe I'll wait until the homecoming to hear other bikes and hopefully make up my mind then. :chef2: :beer3:

I had these guys do mine about two months ago. I have been riding with other VTX's that have Vance and Hines and others, I think mine have a deeper rumble than all the rest. Love the sound and performance. The only pipes that come close are the Hard Chrome Kickers. Just my opinion of course!

Those sound bites on the site sounded awful! I was curious if it was my computer speakers (fairly nice setup) or if it actually sounded that bad, so I went out and made a sound clip of my exhaust. Exact same conditions as they said on their site. 10 feet directly behind bike 4 feet in air, same RPM revs. Mine sounds 1,000 times better! I think their's sounds horrible, I'd never pay money for that.
Here's a clip of my bike with Double D Shotgun Exhaust:

Not nearly like the real thing, but way better than what's on that webpage!

You can't go by the sound clips, I wasn't going to buy them because of the way they sounded either. But the guy told me that he would refund my money less shipping ($45.00) if I wasn't happy with the sound. They don't sound anything like what you hear on the sound clip. Maybe there recording equiptment is inferior.

 

[intheclouds1977]

My recording equipment is a $400 digital camera. Not very top of the line. I just hear a lot of that raspy tinny deceleration noise (like the stock pipes) in their recording. Mine just thumps...none of that echo'y sound.

Chefkris, Dont wait till Homecoming just do it...or go to the Pa x-riders and ask the riders who participated in the Sharon run what they think, of the vtxexhaust...they heard mine and that was all she wrote!

Man I really appeciate all the great feedback you guys are giving me, and I have narrowed it down to the vtxexhaust guys and the hardcrome K'2s. I'll let you all know and show pics of what I decide. Thanks. :chef2: :beer3:
