tors versed d&d pipes

A bit deeper tone.......


I have both pipes and the 2-pipe TORS are nearly the same sound to me. At road speed I think the D&D's are a tad louder, but my wife doesn't complain so I'm leavin them on. I HAVE had the pipe dragging issue, but only since I lowered the rear suspension 1". I think the "power increase" of either pipe is mostly psychological.....louder means more power. The noise along with the "nervous wrist" syndrom is a carryover from the Horley gang.
 
That's good to know about the D&D's since I put Hagons on to lower my Touring about an in. I am a short guy

I thought about TORS but since I like to do long trips, I prefer listening to my tunes vs the muffler. Guess I need to ride a Touring with the TORS before I jump.
 
Can't speak for the D&Ds, but have been running the TORS on my classic for about a month now. Tremendously better than stock. I actually like the sound quite a bit. It's very loud with a heavy load on, but not as much when cruising steady (around 3k-3500 rpm). Was told it was a good indicator to those around me that I just hit the throttle and they need to be paying attention.
Just did a nice long weekend, no issues hearing my tunes, but my scala speakers are in my helmet and not on the front of the bike.


Short answer, guess I can't really help you for the touring, but wanted to say I like the TORS on the classic

BTW there's a set of R3T D&Ds in the classifieds right now
 
I like my D&D's. I wanted performance and a good exhaust sound when I made my choice. The stock mufflers were so quiet my bike sounded like a sewing machine. But, having been a Harley rider, I knew I did not want loud pipes. I ride on road trips and the noise gets old fast. I believe the TORs can't be taken apart for service and modifications like the D&D's can. Something to think about for later on down the modification road,,,.
