Hi,

I need to get new pipes put on my 99 Honda Shadow VLX. I've been looking at the Vance & Hines Cruzer Exhaust for Honda VLX 600 and the Cobra Slashcut exhaust. I'm a new rider and was wondering if anybody had any suggestions. I'm looking for a not extremely loud but not quiet, throaty noise. Right now I have 1.5 diameter straight pipes on it which are too loud and I want to get them changed. Any info would help me out a lot, Thanks

Go to cruisercustomizing.com and read the customer reviews for the pipes that fit your bike. It sure helped me in choosing mine.

I'm running the Jardine taper cut pipes that I got from Cruisercustomizing.

The Cobra's and V&H's are WAY too loud for my taste.

The Jardine's are louder than stock, but not obnoxiously loud.
They give the VLX a really nice low deep rumble and a nice
purr at freeway speeds.

I chose the 'taper' cut for the looks.
They look almost identical to the stock pipes.
I believe they have slash cuts and turn outs available as well.

Thanks, I went with the Cobra Slashcut pipes
