SLP Headers, no cats (sims), weld in x-pipe, and SLP Loudmouth exhaust. It sound like an old chevelle or nova going down the street. Even Harley guys say its "too loud".

I had the two-tip stingers on that setup prior to the Loudmouth, and it was really nice too, but I felt it sounded a little to high pitched in the upper rpm range for my taste. I know its not the xr-1, but it is similar I believe. Just my .02
