Thanks for the info, Kerry. After owning the Standard Area-P I wouldn't give up that beautiful exhaust sound for anything. I don't know why everyone thinks it's so loud. I can throttle down while cruising through town and nobody even raises an eyebrow, but open her up on the back roads around here and it's like having a "monster in your pocket". Lots of really loud Harleys out my way and most of the time people are too busy bitching about them to even notice me. Mad reps to you for manufacturing the best-sounding pipe on the planet.
