Sailor Posted May 27, 2011 Posted May 27, 2011 Has anyone tried L.A. Chopper oval slip ons? I see they make them for the Venture and they look nice but I haven't seen any comments about them. Wonder what they sound like. They claim a deep rumble which is what I want.
exrsa1 Posted May 27, 2011 Posted May 27, 2011 I have a set on my RSV. They are not a deep rumble. Maybe when new, but after 10K miles, they have a higher tone, and I am looking for replacements. I may try to repack them first, but too loud/crisp for my liking. They sound good at idle, but cruising speed they get to me, and my hearing is not too good. Do a search on youtube. I believe I saw a vid of someone with them on. Brian
Sailor Posted May 27, 2011 Author Posted May 27, 2011 Thanks for the info. I think I will no go for those ones.
j_berg Posted May 27, 2011 Posted May 27, 2011 are they loud and annoying? Are you thinking about selling them? If so PM me I might be intersted. the wife would like a pair of loud pipes on the bike.
exrsa1 Posted May 27, 2011 Posted May 27, 2011 They are just not toned low enough for me. Kinda hard to explain. The pitch is higher at speed than I like. It's like a straight piped V8 with 1 1/2" pipes. Sounds good at idle, but when you get on it, it is a pitch that makes me ease up on the throttle. I am going to repack them first and see how they do.
