Anyone rocking these? If so how loud are these bad boys and does the chrome come off within hours or maybe a week?

I have the 19" turnouts. They are loud, don't know how to describe it because loudness is so subjective. I'm louder than most, but definitely not the loudest. The 19" have little perforated metal flaps inside that act as baffles, you can see all the way through the pipes and there is no packing. Don't know if the 13" are constructed the same way. I have had mine on for a year (5000 miles) and the chrome is fine. Bike is garaged.

These are the 27" turnouts(JCwhitney Extra Long Turnouts)

A short video of them. Before the baffle. I also found that if you turn them out instead of angled down it helps. I think the sound bounces off the pavement and makes it even louder.

The 19's were too short for me. They came out under me and sitting in traffic all the heat came right up on me.

They 27's are just right. Nice deep tone but I admit to putting a small baffle in each one just to tone it down a bit. They are perfect now.

So far the quality is better than I expected and they seem like they might last pretty well.
