Default Harley sound

The way a is harley set up firing wise is different from most engines.So when you say your vanguard sounds like a harley, you must not know what a harley sounds like. While I would say a modified vanguard has a cool sound, it does not sound anything like a harley.

Not at All Just pointing out that when you put a performance exhaust on a vanguard it may very well have a throaty tone but does not sound like a harley at all.They sound more like a racing V8 than a harley.No offence intended just an observation.

Why yes, I do own one, in fact I have owned many..so I guess I do know what they sound like. I get it, a HD motor is not a Vanguard motor and vise versa..

As for the Vanny "low-tone" muffler, to me it resembles sound similar to a HD at idle...I guess I need to be more "PC"????

In the south,... it's called "figure of speech"

"My lawn mower sounds like a Harley Davidson motor cycle"

"Mama farted other day and it sounded like a Harley cranking up"
