I just bought a 2014 myself and have been searching hard on the internet for the same items. So far Phat Performance has the best prices I have found. Cruiser Customizing is useless for the Vaquero. Good luck.

oh and I have researched the slipons. Cobra Tri Ovals might be exactly what you are looking for. I like a little more sound as I am used to the Samson exhaust on my 1500 classic, so I am going with the V&H slash cut rounds

pipes

I am running 2 into 1 Freedom performance and the sound is great. You would get either black or chrome system both are available. I am using a cobra auto tune fuel processor and it works great.

I have used cobras tri oval,,,, lots of popping on decel ( bad design)... I don't recommend those unless ur buying a PC5 and have it dyno.. even then they pop on decel

I have used V&H slip on also and they sound good * cheapest way to go...

The 2 in 1 totally increased my skoot performance bar none,,, I could not believe the difference... My skoot has a Thunder open K&N air intake also and so the skoot breathes better and goes like snot.. To me This set up is cat ass

My 2 Cents

The freedom exhausts are beautiful and sound good fro. The clips I have heard. My thing is I like the dual exhaust look, whichis why I am sticking with just slipons. I want a little better performance but I am not looking to add 30 hp. Just want the engine to breathe better and sound like a v twin.

I to purchased the 2014 vaq in burnt orange. and an looking for pipes too, me personally I don't care for the look of FP duels they could have done a better job leaving the heads and starting to go under the motorcycle I have seen and heard them in person, and they do sound really GOOD, appearance is half of it for me though, tri-ovals are awesome looking too but whatever I decide on will be ceramic coated black.
not sure the tri- ovals produce a good rumble and thump I like'em a little loud, but not obnoxious.

Has anyone heard of or seen the V+H monster ovals on a 1700? I found a clip of them on a Yamaha Venture and they sound superb.



Expensive as hell, though.

Been meaning to call these guys. Curious as to why they are selling them if they don't fit our bikes.

Will probably end up with one of these though





I think the V+H sound better IMO.

I had the V-H slip ons for a bit on the Voyager and went back to a stock debaffled. Nice rumble, but not as bad as the slip ons were... Shoooo
Performace wise seem to be about the same, no real big difference there. Had a PC module and one of my BAK (stock cover) models on it

Hey I'm famous now. That was my old nomad. I have the same pipes on my vaquero now. The tri-ovals sound better with some time on them and a bit of carbon built up inside. Not to loud when cruising on the hgwy and have a good bark when you hit the throttle.
