I ran a tbr on my old kawasaki vulcan S. Now have an 07 fxdl with V&H big shots. Just bought a bassani RR 2 mega series for it over the tbr, let me know how you like the bassani over the tbr brother

@@devonm301 I’ve got about 1800 miles on this Bassani so far man and I absolutely love it. I won’t knock TBR, it had its time and purpose but I will say this, it’s not a Bassani. The sound is pretty amazing, I don’t even think I’m going to mess with the baffle.. it already sounds aggressive and nice. The power difference isn’t noticeable to the feel but I had my bike dyno tuned last week since I changed my exhaust and my air cleaner and the numbers showed a little increase. I gained 4hp since the Bassani and the intake which the intake doesn’t really count because I went from a big sucker to an S&S stealth intake, leaves the exhaust as the big difference maker. The dyno guy said the same thing I was thinking, that hp gain was because of the Bassani and tune. Not bad. Cosmetically, it’s prettier.. not going to lie haha but to be fair my Bassani is chrome and not a turn up, my TBR was a stainless turn up with a carbon tip so it looked very raw. All in all, they are worth every penny. This is all my personal opinion though, some guys like TBR more but I’m team Bassani as of now. I too ride an 07 FXDL by the way.

​@@d-lowz-no9931 is this pipe obnoxiously loud? I've had my eye on it for a while and am thinking of getting it this summer, however I ride to work at 6am and don't wanna get noise complaints from my neighbours lol, is it too much?

@@youtubeaccount458 I totally get that! Lol no it’s not obnoxious. At idle it’s not necessarily quiet but it’s not very loud at all. It only gets loud when you give the bike a decent amount of throttle. I live in a HOA type of neighborhood (subdivision) and I haven’t got a complaint yet even with the houses pretty close together. Best way to describe it is it’s only loud when you want it to be. Unless you take the baffle out of course haha but with the baffle in I think it’s perfect.

@@youtubeaccount458 oh yea, one more thing. If you’re not running a V&H FP3 tuner or something, you’ll want to do that. It wakes the bike up significantly from stock or even a two pipe system. You’ll want to tune it and get your fuel and air mixture just right. After that, it’s pretty awesome. I highly recommend it.

Wow, this might be one of the greatest feedbacks I've ever gotten. I always try to do videos of things I can find on youtube, things I find useful when making a decision. Like I did with the sear comparison. Comments like yours are satisfying. I appreciate you taking the time.

Wow, thanks for the feedback! I'm glad it helps.

Hey thanks for the feedback! I appreciate it.

Unfortunately I do not have the means to do that test anymore, but I can tell you that 2 major factors make the noise considerably lowers inside the helmet; First, the helmet itself acts as an ear muffler, and second, the exhaust points back, which combined with the wind when riding minimizes the noise level.

🙏

I just read this comments after a year! made my day... thanks for the feedback 🤜🤛

Kerry Thur thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it. Hope it helps.

I take my bike to 5k fairly often and a little over 6k if I'm feeling frisky...those volumes definitely matter. Beautiful thing about the Road Rage is it's fairly docile at idle and cruising speed and totally tolerable; it really only gets loud when you want to. It's a perfect balance.

To be honest I think you should take up Tea parties, and other sissy events. And leave Harley riding to the men. Riding a Harley means send it boys.

Thanks for the comments! a couple of years now and it's still holding up nicely.

🤜🤛

Agree, I like them both as well, but lean more towards the louder, deeper sound, besides the improvement on HP.

🤜🤛

Best ones out there

🤜🤛

lol

Thanks for the feedback! I hope it helps.

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it. I have a few more in the works, useful stuff that I would like to see.

Thanks for the feedback.

138 db's is loud af! Do you get a lot of complains?

@@JuanderBoy I don't make a lot of noise where I live, but people have mentioned it at pubs and bike meets. That figure is only when the throttle is open - I too set the db meter to record highest figure and went back to the bike to open the throttle, as when accelerating. Most of the time the throttle is only just open so the noise is not much above standard.

Thanks for the feedback

Thanks for the feedback. That's actually a great idea. I'll put things in motion. I'm thinking inside and outside a full face to get both options. Might take a few weeks though.

JuanderBro Thank you very much :)

Hey Thanks for the sub! All those specs are way over my head lol... I can only tell you that the Basani worked great all this years, all the way until I sold the bike a few weeks ago.

@@JuanderBoy damn.. sorry to hear that.. Hope your still riding !.. What an awesome exhaust for my bike !! Now my Stg 2 tune is totally dialed in.. Quiet at adle and Roars on FWO !!

Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks for the feedback! the RR2 is still holding on strong.

No issues at all, and I did the installation myself, as you can see in my other video. If I made it work I'm pretty sure it's ok.

Not at all, I've never had a problem. They're not legal to run in the streets in CA, but it's more of a gray area when it comes to getting a ticket. Most companies won't sell or ship to CA because the noise level is no sanctioned. Again, I have never had a problem whatsoever. If you give them a reason, they can legally give you a ticket, but if you follow the simple "don't ride like an asshole" rule, you'll be fine.

@@JuanderBoy Sick man, Thank you for responding!

@@thatitguy1507 🤜🤛

Thanks for the Feedback!

oh yes I did, it looks mean. The difference in performance wasn't that much and I'm alway trying to save a buck. Also, the black tip on the II helped my decision and according to a couple of sources the III is louder.

Thanks for the feedback! Hope it helps.

I don't see any bolts outside, it might be in.

Of course! risers are Big Al's Deluxe with pullback and the bars are Lucky Dave's Riser Bar. Good luck with the build!

I had a hard time getting mine here. Almost all of them have been not street legal for year, so they won't even ship them to CA. Crazy law.

Thanks for the feedback! That's a nice air cleaner. Make sure you set up the air/gas intake when you install it, then you'll be all set when you get the pipes. I had them do it for me, way out of my league.

JuanderBoy great to know I'm going to have them do it for me and thanx for the fast reply! ride safe brother!

JuanderBoy what do you mean set up the air/gas intake I'm new to this, just asking cause I don't want to sound Dumb when I tell them to set it up what is the air/gas intake?

ha, that makes 2 of us. I'm making all this videos because I think my fuck ups can help someone in my position not make those mistakes. Like on the video installing the RR2. The bigger air cleaner will suck more air and it needs to be adjusted so prevent over heating and help performance.

JuanderBro so will the stage 1 screaming eagle ventilator be enough for the RR3?

To be honest with you, after install I took it to the dealer and payed for the tuning. I didn't know how to do it and was not willing to invest the time to learn 👀

Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it. The bars are a combination of Big Al's Deluxe riser with pull back and Lucky Dave's riser bar which also have pull back. The whole set up is about 12". I lost a little bit of rise when I installed the Lucky Dave seat because it pushes you up a forward a lille bit, I have another video on that as well, you can check it out on my channel...and whenever I find time I'll do an installation video for the bars.

I'm still loving it and glad I picked it. I noticed a little less full efficiency with the exhaust and Performance Machine air cleaner combination, but I believe that was expected.

*fuel

😂😂😂 didn't see it until just now.

You can just get a muffler, cheaper than the full exhaust and will still give you a deeper sound. Cobra is good at that, I used to have one on my last bike

Thanks so much for answering, but i am really looking for a full 2 in 1 exhoust ;) But maby its not possible?

@@ErikISkogen The only tip I can give you, if it's legal to sell in California, it'll be low decibels. Most after market exhausts are not street legal here because they're loud, so if it be sold or shipped to California, then it's not crazy loud.

I have no idea. I don't have the paperwork anymore. Sorry.

😂😂 word

Yes sir! Lucky Dave's 1" Riser Bar Big Al's Deluxe Risers 6" Riser with pull back Memphis Shades Gauntlet Fairing (Which I upgraded to a Road Warrior also by Memphis Shades) You can see a glimpse of the new fairing on my Lucky Dave saddle comparison video. Hope it helps.

100%... I realized it after the video was up. I'm too lazy to reuploa. Thanks for comment!

I did not

@@JuanderBoyMusic Thank you.

They do make muffler that quiet the sounds a bit, but when you ride with this typo of exhausts you can actually feel the sound. Remember the sound will alway be behind you.

I'm not even going to pretend to know what "es sost' means.

lol, took me a year to realize it's about my accent... hahaha

I had a little setback so the video got pushed a few weeks, but it's coming. Thank you for checking!

Alex Rios Install video is now up. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jJ5yetOgndPWfoE.html

ok

Dustin Ellis Yes, it's the stock motor.

The stock image on the bassani website is the same for the megapower and the road rage 2 for tall shocks

Nicholas English Didn't even know there was one for tall shocks. Even though I installed it myself I don't know anything about mechanics so I don't see how the size of the shocks can affect the pipe. I bought it through revzilla, over the phone, even is you don't buy they will help you figuring stuff out. Great customer service.

Gotcha. Do you know if it's the mega power or the standard road rage 2?

Nicholas English Mega Power

Cool. The bike looks good man!
