I love that sound but will share this for what it's worth - when I got my big V-twin Victory 15 years ago, I could not hear my own bike with the stock exhaust when I was riding with a group. So I got some straight thru drag pipes installed and was the loudest one in the group. Three years later I had noticeable hearing loss, and put the stock pipes back on, but my hearing did not return. Now I wear ear plugs on everything. Bummer yes, but better to save one's hearing so be careful. As a side note, it is the low frequency tones that damage hearing the most.
