![Sounds better than a Harley? | VTX [RAW] POV | Pure Engine Sound | V&H Pipes | Motorcycle ASMR](/img/n.gif)
In my opinion, the Cobra pipes look and sound better. Thanks for making my choice easier. I just bought an 06 VTX 1300R right before Christmas.
Thanks for watching and subscribe! The vance and hines are very aggressive and way louder… i also prefer the cobras (but as it turned out i sold the red one but still have the yellow bike)
Can I ask a question as someone who wants to get into riding to you? Feel free too decline but I have a question about this bike.
I agree regarding the cobra pipes they have that deeper base that Carrie’s right through the revs. I had them on an 08 Shadow Saber that I wish I never sold. I went to look at an 06 VTX1300 today with 4500 miles on it and the dealer failed to tell me they sold it yesterday when I got there.
I was gonna say the same thing, cobra has that lower tone to it which makes it sound a lot better. The other sounds like crackling which I’m not a fan of.
This is a tough choice. Both sound awesome. Hines's would be my pick on this one.
I think for me too, Hines sounds more vicious .
Thanks for watching and subscribe!
I made a real cool video today, will be uploaded tomorrow
I spent about a week fixing some running issues on my 2003 vtx 1300 s. I had some popping sounds during deceleration. I was surprised when a neighbor of mine showed up to complain about the loud noises. She mentioned that she works from home.
My bike has cobra pipes. They have a deep and loud rumble I love.
Ride safe. Both bikes look great.
Thanks for watch and subscribe! I need to make another video soon with the yellow vtx1300
What did you say to her?
Vance and hines sounds aggressive i love it
Thanks for watching and subscribe!
Mine is so loud man 😂
@@Drive315 what Handlebars do you have on these?
@@JDeezle21 they look like the stock bars that comes on these bikes
I just got an 06 Honda VTX 1300 and it has some vance and hines exhaust and i love the sound of it! Glad i got it for my first bike!
Thanks for watching and subscribe! More videos to come!
Cobra by far ,they sound really good They're tuned very well!!!!
Had the Cobras on my 1300, absolutely loved the sound of them
Thanks for watching and subscribe! Yeah they give the bike a nice sound, especially at low rpms. The V&H are way louder and more aggressive, but I prefer the cobras
I'll take the Vance and Hines any day. A friend of mine had one just exactly like your 2006 but with the Vance pipes. It was a great bike.
Thanks for watching and subscribe! Yeah the V&H definitely sound great, louder than the cobra pipes
What v&h pipes are they I need them on mine
@@jeremiahnevel8098 Big shots staggered.
I just bought an 07 shadow sabre 1100 that has Vance&Hines. It sounds throaty and deep, it is such an aggressive tone. The bike really stands out on the streets. Im in love with it
Have an 05 C with V & H Longshot pipes. Best sound i've heard IMO. After getting nailed by the cops for loud noise I bought V & H's "quiet baffles" and swapped them out to keep from getting hit up and also to respect my neighbors as I'm an early morning guy. They actually bring the sound towards your Cobra pipes and still sound very good but tamed down. I do get very tempted to put the original baffles back in as I miss the throaty/aggressive sound they gave. I love the VTX's! You have 2 nice bikes and they both sound good! Cheers!
Thanks for watching and subscribe! Currently i only have the yellow one left, but i get new ones every year stay tuned!
Any chance you know the model number of the v&h pipes please I can't find them on their site. Thanks
I have Vance and Hines on my '09 1300C. Bike has also been de-smogged with the pair valve delete. It sounds awesome. In fact it sounds better than my 2008 Honda VTX 1800T with Vance and Hines. Both your bikes sound great, but I am partial to the Vance and Hines sound.
Thanks for watching and subscribe!
The 1800 is quite a bit more powerful, but the 1300s seem to sound better (when stock and when they have an exhaust)
V&H sounds a little maxed and rattley at high RPM. It's a little louder. I love a high RPM slow down on the Cobras. Has such a sweet belching sound.
I like the side by side comparison on the same make and model with the same motor size. The Vance & Hines has a more throaty sound, both sound great.
Cobra. Clean, smooth (even accounting for warming up), but still sounds mean without being too harsh.
Thanks for watching and subscribe! Its for sale
The yellow with the v&h was louder. I have a 1800 with cobra, I had Rinehart that I really liked, but wore out after about 18 years. Mines is a 02 and I'm still riding it after 20 years.
Thanks for watching and subscribe, i like my maroon one better, its just an amazing bike. Maybe i will keep it a while
I like the cobra pipes much better . Especially at idle .
Thanks for watching and subscribe!
Yeah the yellow one idles a bit low, gonna adjust it at some point
I have the same exact black cherry 1300c with same exact cobra slashdowns. IMO it's the best sounding bike around.
Nice bikes...they both sound beautiful...
Thanks for watching and subscribe!
Thanks for the video! I’m trying to decide between the two for my 2006 VTX 1300. Love that red color. Beautiful bike!
Thanks for watching and subscribe! I prefer the cobra exhaust, the hines is very loud and a little too aggressive for me, the cobra pipes were just right for that bike. But every one has their preferences!
I have an o five c and I also have V&H Longshot And absolutely love them
Thanks for watching and subscribe!
I've always liked the sound of Vance & Hines on bikes I've heard, but now hearing slashcut Cobras on a 1300c Vtx, I really like the sound of them better than the Vance & Hines. Side by side the Cobras sound lot better to me. They're not as harsh and have a deeper rumble to me. I have them on my '06 VTX now!
I second that
I'll third that, I've the slash cut Cobras on my 04 1300c. I love the sound.
I'll 4th it I feel like the Vance and Hines is pure sound but the cobras give a nice deep tone. Both are great but I like the cobras
Cobra.
They pipes seems to create more bass.
Vance and Hines sounds loud, but hollow on gas.
Cobra is my favourite.
The wine red colour tone kills me ❤.
I've got 2004 VTX1300C which I had put in storage for the last 5 years until now. Never had time to ride. It's red like your 2006. I had thought about selling it but got it back out because of the gas prices being so high. I like the sound of both but prefer the Vance and Hines. I'll be getting a set when I can afford them. A while ago I heard the Jug Huggers by Bubz and thought they sounded the best of all. Don't think they're available anymore though.
Thanks for watching and subscribe! They’re really amazing bikes, they’re well known to last over 100,000 miles as long as you maintain them. I have 6 bikes, including a honda valkyrie and a honda vtx1800r (the valkyrie is my favorite)
I like the Cobra pipes sound, but the Vance's sound louder.
Thanks for watching and subscribe !
The camera was positioned towards the hines.
How long were the Cobra pipes on the bike at the time of this video? My experience with my pipes is that they got louder over time. Both bikes sound great.
Thanks for watching and subscribe!
I am not sure but if i had to guess i would say at least 5 years. The vance and hines will always be louder, they’re just so mean sounding
I prefer the red one's sound :)
Thanks for watching and subscribe!
I still dont know which one i truly like better, they’re both awesome
I like the high ripping note of the Vance but Cobra has a better bass note.
Thanks for watching and subscribe !
I currently only own the yellow one with the vance n hines
The yellow one sounds like it needs a little bit of carb work done to it.
Thanks for watching and subscribe, maybe, but also maybe it’s because of the exhaust
Man I usually dont dig yellow but But this time I fell in love ,,,,, the sound and solo seat exactly how I'd run her.. cheers for the upload. from down under.
Definitely need the idle air mixture turned out about 1 turn or until it takes the throttle smooth.
How do i get to the idle air mixture screw?
@@Drive315 The idle air mixture screw, or air/fuel screw is on the bottom of the carb, it uses a “D” shape fitting to turn it, definitely hard to reach. Turning it out, or counter-clockwise enriches the idle mixture. I installed an aftermarket air/fuel screw with a cable and a knob on the end that can be adjusted on the fly, from Glen’s VTX Garage 🤙
I have exact 06 but black with Vance and Hines I love it
Thanks for watching and subscribe!
I have Vance & Hines on mine and I just like the snarl of their pipes.
Thanks for watching and subscribe!
I’ve got an 07 C in Coronado Blue and the full exhaust Cobra drag pipes. I like them but they pop on decel. Previously had an 07 R with V/H slip-ons. Both are nice exhaust with a deep rumble at idle and sound like a race car at speed. By far the best exhaust I ever ran were 3.5” Rineharts on my Harley tho.
Thanks for watching and subscribe, i also have a vtx1800r (stock exhaust). Check out my channel i have 7 bikes currently
I love the sound of the V&H. Raspy and nasty. That's what I have on my 04 VTX1300c. Mine is also very cold blooded.
Thanks for watching and subscribe! I still have my yellow 2008 vtx1300c. It really roars! And still feels great to ride
Cobra: refined rumble
V&H: mean and angry
My personal pick, Cobra, but ultimately beauty is in the ear of the beholder.
Thanks for watching and subscribe!
hello everyone. I listened to this video for about a month, once or twice a week, and I thought and composed exhaust sounds. My personal, subjective choice is: I start the motorcycle with COBRA and while riding I change to V&H :) The sound of COBRA when stationary is, in my opinion, "deeper, stronger, more bassy, BUT when you accelerate, the sound becomes a bit weak, it loses depth and power. V&H is the opposite when stationary." it's great, but it lacks the depth like in Cobra, you accelerate and it gets better 😀 one thing is certain - I still don't know which one to choose 🙄 Maybe COBRA on one cylinder and second V&H ? 😅😂
I think the cobra speedster longs sound the best on the VTX 1300! Are you running with baffles in or out? You need some back pressure because without back pressure your going to lose some power running straight pipes! Great looking bikes! I have a 2006 Kawasaki Vulcan 1500 with Cobra drag pipes! I put thunder torque inserts in my pipes,they are adjustable so you can adjust to get the sound you want!Ride safe!😎🇺🇸🏴☠️🇺🇸🏴☠️🇺🇸🏴☠️🇺🇸🏴☠️
Thanks for watching and subscribe! I think my cobras may have baffles in them, but the vance and hines on my yellow one are as close to straight pipes as you can get… super aggressive. I kinda prefer the cobras, but when you want attention the yellow one is the best
The 1300 is a perfect bike, the 1800 is a little top heavy, the 1100 and 750 don’t quite have the muscle. Nice bikes brother, the V+H are definitely my fave for both sound and quality. PS maybe go up one on the main jets on the yellow bike, does it backfire a lot under deceleration too ?
Thanks for watching and subscribe, actually it does not backfire. It runs good once it warms up all the way, but kinda annoying at first
@@Drive315 oh ok cool, this will actually help though as it’s not as big a change, open the pilot screws another turn, that will warm it up better and eliminate any off idle stumbles, they always come a little lean for the sniffer test, it’ll run better regardless I guarantee it. It may just have a cooler thermostat too. Thanks again for sharing buddy.
thank you for posting this video, much appreciated.
Thanks for watching and subscribe!
I also have a valkyrie and a vtx1800 !
I got the vtx 1800 in 02, frantic for pipes, I put the cobras on, went to bikeweek an heard vance pipes an immediately switched. Cobras don't measure to the vances.
Thanks for watching and subscribe! The vance and hines are alot louder
Cobra sounds better to me, but they both sound good
I have V&H on my 04. I love them. I could’ve picked out which one of yours was V&H just by the sound.
Mine takes very little time to warm up…
Vance and Hines!! Yellow for the win!
At 1:40 notice the cobra is about 3ft to the left of the camera and the hines is about 1ft to the right, the hines got better sound quality because it was closer.
Thanks for watching and subscribe, the hines is alot louder in person, but i think the cobras sounded just right in my opinion. I only have the yellow one now
I am sorry but I have a 2007 vtx 1300r with Cobra pipes and a 2006 vtx 1300c with stock pipes. The Vance and Hines pipes sounds like stock pipes with the baffles removed. Just noise like a cherry bomb on a 6 cylinder.
Thanks for watching and subscribe! I describe the vance and hines as just loud straight pipes… but some people love that sound
i like them both, u get a low decibel provocative growl that sounds mean and alive yet respectful of neighbors with cobra compared to loud growl near bite with the v&h that says "respect me, i'm the boss B#*$&".
Thanks for watching and subscribe! To this day I still don’t know which one i like better , check out all my bikes on my channel!
I actually have a Suzuki m50 that so sound nice
Vance & Hines 👍🏻
Thanks for watching and subscribe!
You can’t go wrong with either one .I’ve owned both brands your choice.
I've got V&H pipes on my 02 VTX 1800c. They sound almost the same but mine probably sound a little more aggressive just because of the bigger motor. lol
Thanks for watching and subscribe! If im honest i think the 1300s sound better in general, even if you put them side by side with the same exhaust
I had vance and hines on my vtx1300c, I think I still prefer them over the cobra. I'm still not entirely sure if I regret selling the vtx haha
Thanks for watching and subscribe! I have 7 bikes currently
The only reason you wont regret selling it is if you upgraded to the VTX 1800. Tons of power, reliable as steel and damn good looking. Lol
Yellow. Did it need any re-jetting? Those were the V & H right? I bet if you drop the bowl on the accelerator pump ( NOT THE FLOAT BOWL) and clean it out, it will run better.
It sounds like a honda pilot 3.5 v6 reving 6100 rpms with true dual streight pipes streight out the back whenever you reved it up to 6100 rev limiter .
Cobra sounds powerfull, Vince & Hines sounds beautiful … both are good options
Thanks for watching and subscribe! I just made a cold start video with it check it out on my channel!
Do both of those have baffles in the pipes? I test rode a Suzuki M50 with unbaffled VH exhaust and it was really loud. I think a light baffle in those pipes tames it enough where it's not obnoxious but you still have a mean rumble.
Thanks for the videos man! I'm looking at a 2003 vtx1300 right now, I might just buy it....I'm still debating if I ''need the 1800'' or not..
Thanks for watching and subscribe! Honestly with a cruiser i dont feel like i needed the extra power, but i do prefer the fuel injection that the 1800 has. The 1300 felt plenty powerful for me, and it handles better. But if you plan on riding on the highway alot then the 1800 is better. Both are high quality bikes!
Vance and Hines,. yep.!
Thanks for watching and subscribe!
I like both. But if I had to choose. Id go with the Cobra. It has a better tone and is a little more refined sounding. The V&H have a great chop to the idle.
Thanks for watching and subscribe! I really liked the red one, but I ended up selling the red one and kept the yellow one. Stay tuned!
Vance and Hines have a bit more masculine sound 😊
When I ride on my VTX with V&H the people 100+ meters ahead turning their heads back to see what's coming their way! 😂
Thanks for watching and subscribe! Yeah its a very aggressive sound!
while the vance and Hines are louder and more agressive, the cobra sounds is more rumbling deep. I would choose the Cobra
Thanks for watching and subscribe!
They’re both great, but if you really want attention then the yellow bike with the super loud vance n hines is the way to go
@@Drive315
it depends on what you prefer. I prefer the sound over volume. So for me it is the deep rumbling.
The camera was facing the hines, that's why they sound louder.
Cobra
Both sound really good but the V&H on yellow one sounds more throaty and more badass.
The camera was facing the hines, look closer at the start ups.
I'm trying to get me a hold of a Vance & Hines system to a '05 VTX1800, but they don't seem to sell them anymore. Anyone knows where I can buy that system?
Thanks for watching and subscribe!
Mine is stock
Yellow looks great on a bike.
I have the cobras on my 1300C (same color as yours) and the chrome plating on the plastic tips has come off.
He placed the camera directed towards the hines. That's why it sounds more clear.
V&H's all day long!
Thanks for watching and subscribe!
The long shots have a crossover section between the two pipes if I remember correctly. Similar to an x or h pipe on a v8 car. Evens out the exhaust pulses making it sound more like one engine vs sounding like two engines fighting with each other to be heard ( as in typical Harley Davidson fashion).
Vance and Hines sounds way better to me.. Its Not even a close comparison for me. And, Loud pipes can save lives. ❤
Thanks for watching and subscribe! I actually sold the red one , but still have 4 bikes total currently!
Vance and Hines!
Thanks for watching and subscribe ! I own the bike to this day and love it
It’s hard to judge buy video. But which pipes have a clean sound, without extra noises?
Thanks for watching and subscribe, the cobra pipe’s definitely sound cleaner, the vance are nasty and vicious sounding!
Great comparison. Thanks
Thanks for watching and subscribe!
Red one both sounds, AND (as i can tell) runs better.. Maybe the yelow one needs to increase idle just a tiny bit...
Vance for me. Cobra does some smoother. But if you want that nasty rough sound, it's the vance
Thanks for watching and subscribe! The Vance and Hines exhaust sounds very mean and the bike is overall a great package has an LED headlight rare yellow color and sounds amazing
The cobras look and sound so much better
like the cobra
Thanks for watching and subscribe!
Do both bikes have baffles installed within the pipes or were those removed?
Thanks for watching and subscribe! I think both had baffles removed
Swap the seats then send me the red one. A happy camper I'll be.
Thanks for watching and subscribe! Sadly i only have the yellow vtx left now.

Exactly which Cobra pipes are those , I love the sound !
Thanks for watching and subscribe unfortunately I bought the bike like this and I don’t know the name of them
Speedster slash cuts
V&H 💪
I actually prefer the cobra pipes, but the V&H are definitely louder
I have VH, I'd swap for cobra for sure! And the cobras look better
Thanks for watching and subscribe !
I currently own just the yellow one, as well as 2 other motorcycles check em out
Both sound good, But I prefer the cobra sounds best!
Thanks for watching and subscribe
Can you tell me what Cobra pipes are on the burgundy one? Beautiful bikes!!
Thanks for watching and subscribe. Its the cobra speedster exhaust, you can find it on revzilla website
Sweet bikes. What seat is on the yellow one? It looks badass
Thanks for watching and subscribe. Thats a mustang seat
I am not an expert with bikes. I liked the Cobra pipes sound the most.
Cobra 👌👍
Thanks for watching and subscribe!
Yeah me too, although the bike with the cobras is 2 years older
Vance ! Nice video and bikes
Thanks for watching and subscribe! I will make a video with the yellow bike soon
Red bike sounds cleaner, but having hit a deer on my bike, id go with the loud pipes on the yellow bike.
Vtx 👍
I liked the Cobra by far. Has a deeper softer sound.
The cobra definitely
Cobra for sure.
did you have to adjust the carb or but new jets in the carb
I didn’t do either, stay tuned im gonna do a cold start video with it soon!
What size is the rear tire on the yellow one? Looks larger than stock for sure
Thanks for watching and subscribe! I think its a 170 width
I have a pair of Vincent Heights on my 1300 VTX 2004 and I love them the Vincent and Heights pipe song better
The Vance and Hines are definitely better sounding. They sound even better under torque.
Thanks for watching and subscribe!
Love them both, I have an 06 VTX 1300 C that looks identical to the red one. I have the BUB jug huggers and i have to be bias and say the BUBs sound better lol. Great video over all.
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it. I have the yellow vtx left, its a real nice looking bike, almost like art in the garage.
Subscribe if you want, I always get different bikes mainly in the summer time!
@@Drive315 I have and I've watched a few of your videos so far. 🤘
