So I just drove it around again, and there is droning. After about 3000 its not bad, but I didn't really want it this loud. What could I do to make it a bit quieter?

Congratulations, love the Quads and the Titanium tips Phil.

Question about the license plate though....You love Roast Beef?

Class Act, Phil. Thanks for sharing. Wish I had that set up. But you know what they say? The grass is always greener...

Sounds aggressive. Droning can only be avoided with a resonator.

I would go with magnaflow resonators if they do have them.

you can put one before the muffler if possible, if not you will need 2. Note the muffler will become less loud after 500 miles or so.
