2018 Fatboy 114 exhaust advice

    Hey guys & gals
    I have an 18 fatboy 114.
    Currently has just stage 1 with V & H eliminator 300 slip ons and a FP3 that I use to tune. 

    My issue is, I am not in love with the slip ons (both sound and visual). 
    I have looked at V & H big radius, freedom performance, and came close to getting some cobra speedster splashdown. 

    Now, I LOVE the look of the V&H big shot staggered, but they are not made for the M8's. 

    Does anyone know of anything available close to these? 
    Appreciate your advice

    Oh, and a cam change will be on the cards in the future, so a more free flowing exhaust is preferable.

    Don’t they shoot ppl that ride loud pipes in the Socialist Republic of Victoria?
    Sorry mate don’t have anything to offer bar recommending you check out D&D incase a 2-1 lights up your runway. I have a D&D on my Dyna and love it and it was always rated well by tuners.

    Alternatively I always found it useful to trawl US HD forum sites to see who was happy with what. Geelong HD May be worth visiting for another opinion too.

    HD’s need better pipes to avoid the appearance of riding a sewing machine.

    I'm NSW, so it's all good.
    Not necessarily after loud, more of a tone (I'm an audio snobl, and look. 
    The eliminators are loud enough under load, but at idle etc, sounds like a muted fart.

    Okay, so managed to find freedom pipes that are nearly identical to staggered big shots, but actually made for M8 Fatboy.
    When I get them, I will upload pics, and a before/after video.
