Harley Davidson M8 D&D billet cat vortex baffle vs big bore baffle sound comparison

[@faithfighters3399]

Just got my billet cat today. Thanks guys!!!

[@nobodysreview6137]

1st one sounds great, if you traveling listening to some loud pipes gets old, even with ear plugs and can get u pulled over if they feel like messing with you. That first is pretty sweet, better then stock sound plus performance.

[@beatnips]

Probably the best color Harley put out 🙏🏻

[@freebird7284]

and very expensive to duplicate

[@RGHD912]

One of the best sounding exhaust I’ve heard

[@dextersimmons6020]

I love this video .i watch it every other day

[@johndurham8965]

I'm so glad I went with the Big Bore baffle. I think it sounds great. Bike sounds like a race car when I get on it and go.

[@jcg5647]

Do u do long rides? I'm concerned about it being too loud. Hard to tell through videos. Thanks in advance!

[@RayBlack321]

jcg 56 I don’t even have the big bore and if your going on long rides go with the first one. At times mine can get annoying but I love it.

[@johndurham8965]

@@jcg5647 I do a lot of long rides. The sound doesn't get annoying for me.

Any negative to performance with the BB baffle without a BB? I can get a slightly used Billet Cat with the BB baffle for a good price. I asked D&D and they just replied with a cut and paste from their website.

[@johndurham8965]

@@Its_Peck I was told to only do the Big Bore baffle if I had a Big Bore motor. I had one on my Stage 1 114 and I thought it ran good. I have one on my 131 and it runs great, 139TQ, 134HP. I was told by an engine builder that works with D&D that the Big Bore baffle works best with applications with around 150 HP/TQ numbers and if you expect less that the other baffle will perform better for the lower numbers. He said that he and D&D worked together to conduct these tests. Had he told me this before I bought this setup in March, maybe I would have gone with that baffle. But I don't have any regrets. If you are going to get a good deal, then go for it.

Chris happy holidays from New York . ps. Give the frenchies a hug for me🥰

[@orgillmathew]

I got the new stage 7 one. Has two engines.

[@trancat3321]

I waxed mine and didn’t use Harley brand wax and it voided my warranty

[@emeraldcitycarpenter]

Great look’n bike Chris. It sounds perfect now. Curious on the numbers that engine is putting out. Great video👍🏽

[@Heavy69Metal]

Love my Big Bore Baffle on my 131 awesome

[@jimmychronicles.9079]

Which is which. You say first is raspier but then say second is louder. Description says opposite. Which is vortex and which is big bore?

[@jerryhubbard4461]

Most pipes and mufflers on the new bikes today have lost the old Harley Davidson sound. I have a brand new trike, almost one week old and if I make a change to the slip-ons, it will be American Custom Exhaust. They are the closets to the real HD sound.

[@cecet5534]

Sounds great

[@richardallbritton0687]

Sounds quite to me beautiful bike I like rcx myself

[@freebird7284]

performance aside

[@edwinparedesnjusa]

Love it

[@TheBrandonliteyr]

I bought a used bike with a d&d 2:1 but I'm not sure if it has that upgraded muffler how can I tell

[@Hoggmedic]

Is this one of the best header systems for the M8? Obviously you have it so I would assume you think it is the best but was wondering how it compares to others in the market. I also have a 117 and want to up my game. Thanks

[@faithfighters3399]

The “big bore” muffler is the louder of the two correct?

[@kevincarnes7598]

Hi Chris, What is the name of this new muffler? It sounds Awesome! Also what’s your total set up? Is this something I could order from you?

[@michaelwilson4612]

Does this mean u can't use the big bore baffle on a stock 107???

[@codyrm]

Was any additional tuning needed when switching the muffler?

[@JMercyMuzik]

which one would be better with just a stage 2 kit

[@Heavy69Metal]

Will the D&D Billet cat with big bore baffles for 131 crate and kit?

[@williamferril3274]

Do they idle at same volume ? Thanks Wil

[@freedom6919741]

Just had a case up 124 built with all the good stuff. I told him I wanted the least loud baffle. The bike is ear piercing loud. How do I tell what baffle is in it ?

[@williamferril3274]

Is there a tq/mph diference between these pipes ?

[@liamstandish878]

Whats the difference between D&D and HPI exhaust? Besides the price?

[@liamstandish878]

Can you put those perfcore on a xcat or power duals from V&H?

[@liamstandish878]

How is Lucas oil hold up vs Amsoil ??

[@kswright2339]

M8's sound too tame. I prefer the sound of the twin cams.

[@nobodysreview6137]

Ya, that first pipe he shows on a twin cam is a nice set up, not blasting loud but sweet sound when out ripping

[@freedom6919741]

Sound doesn’t mean it makes power.

[@talkingrock7011]

Not with the right cam

[@williamnewberry7215]

All day long !

[@user-vs5fi1nf7f]

That d&d make better power then anything else I thrown on and best sound!!! Of course gotta have right cam

[@speedyReedyEnterprise]

what is the name of the part 2 baffle that’s has that mean sound to it?

[@mickens47]

Chris what suspension are you running on that glide

[@boxoflube]

iRide by ThunderMax. Check them our here: www.cyclesolutions.com/product/iride-air-assisted-suspension/

[@rsanchez5676]

So an m8 needs a cat ?

[@paulduran8848]

What color is that bike?

[@jjs8046]

Just WOW. The mic couldn't take it😂

[@freebird7284]

why thundermax over properly oem with TTS?

[@highwayman1218]

Probably tuners in his area.... Seems to be a more popular tuner on the east side. I initially ran a Thundermax on my bagger.... Im on the West Coast where really no one wants to deal with Thundermax..... Pulled and sold the stuff for a loss and went with TTS for my tuner to dial in my 124.

[@chrisrydell1337]

What brand/model is your seat?

[@boxoflube]

Give me a call 765-730-1646

[@duanechenette36]

Chris besides it being loud was there any performance gains swapping over to that muffler. I have the original on mine and I think it sounds great but would like a little more noise at idle but also would like to know if performance would increase. Mine is a 107 with an andrews cam, Technoresearch tuner and SE breather. It did 103hp and 116tq when it was on the dyno back in 17.

[@detroitbloodrunsinme8194]

Unfortunately I can answer this for u, you’ll actually lose performance torque and HP with the new big bore baffle. If you like the way your bike is rolling performance wise I’d say stick to the vortex. People just want super loud bikes and these r very loud as it is but I’d say the torque isn’t worth risking

[@jjs8046]

What cam, please?

[@jjs8046]

"thanks".

2:00 sounds like a growling chihuahua

[@Green2011Leaf]

Looks like Harley, but it doesn't sound like a harley.
