Greetings,

I'm on a 2013 Switchback and currently running a V&H ProPipe w/ quiet baffle.  Prior to the quiet baffle install, performance was good, but too loud.  Since quiet baffle install, performance is neutered a bit, but volume is good.

Any recommendations for an exhaust that provides performance and low noise?

I kinda with ya there, I like the V&H pipes I have, baffles don't do much if anything, my solution was earplugs. :smilep:
I'd be interested in any options also, I was looking to install the quiet baffles also but don't what what little performance I have to suffer  :pop:

I'd love to get the Fuel Moto exhaust, however after talking to Jamie, it does not fit the Switchback.  Would you know if the slip on part would fit the Pro Pipe?

You can drill a hole into the end of that quite baffle to help it breathe a bit better and still help with the noise,unless you looking for stock quite sound then as mentioned here other opinions are available,Everyone has a different sound they want, Just sayin

Also a retune would be suggested
2 Bikes and 2 Beemers, that's what I have been told 😳

I'm happy with my RB Black Hole; added a vortex cone and a turnout.
Have had different V&H pipes; RB is quieter and did better on dyno...

Do you have a sheet with the black hole? I've only seen one, have a mate that's interested in how it goes
Just because its said don't make it so

The pipe, with added Hooker 4" turnout and a vortex cone inside

The only problem I have with those turn downs is the amount of dust and dirt they shoot up. I prefer the turn outs for that reason.

I ran an original White Bro's e-series for years. I now run the Fuel-Moto updated e-series 2 into 1. Performs well and sounds good. You still want it to sound like a harley. Good pipe.

I had a Supertrapp SuperMeg on my last bike; not too loud and you can adjust the sound. Good performance too.

I also went with a 2 into 1 from FM E serie, really quiet fit nicely i'm very happy a no brainer to me imo.

Supertrapp has got to be the quietest performance pipe.

I always found the Supertrapp to be the goofiest sounding thing at startup.

I'm pretty much through the sound thing. Unless it's a Shovel or older....

I ran a supermeg and propipe. The supermeg will be quiet and will feel better in the lower R's.
The propipe beats in from the mid on up.

I agree, I finally got rid of mine because I couldn't stand the sound of it LOL.  It was definitely quiet & ran great but the sound really bugged me...

I doubt it's the pipe. I had one on my 113" TC made power to the limiter, 6200 rpm. Look at tune or the cam.
