Looking to finally chop my Arrows but I'm wondering what the difference will be in how they sound.  Anyone have any insight?

I cut my Termis and love the sound!!! I know you are running Arrows but it may have kinda the same affect as far as sound goes.  I did a video and put it on Youtube....and put it up here someplace (grandpa nate was my name) here someplace....hope the link works...I hate searchin for stuff

Less bass, more mid range....


less fish is always a good thing...

You wanna cut your Arrows?  How much?  I'm getting a set soon, but I don't think I'd ever cut into 'em.  I would be afraid of losing the bassy rumble.

Probably not more than 3".  Just want them even with my tail chop.

Cool.  Please keep us updated on your progress and final outcome.

Measured it today.  I'll be chopping 2".  I'll keep you posted on the progress.  BTW these are the Ti S2R cans.

Alright cool.  Get a good listen too - see if there is a before/after difference.    Pics too!

I personally would have to agree.  Stock they sound better than most but not as good as they should. So I must say I was kinda bummed when I spent all the money on a full system and it was just kinda alright.  I mean they were better but still kinda boring.  Cutting em let all of the L-twin goodness out IMO.
