08 Ulysses here. Upgraded to race ECM, k&n filter. I had sent my muffler to Hawk before winter but didn't have chance to ride until yesterday.
Here is the one word sum-up: holyeffingshitowskyola.
The Hawk offers a sound that is less heard, more felt. It is chest thumping rumble, not a blatty "screamin' eagle" rasp.
I've only heard it at idle from a distance - but I can only imagine the unholy sounds people hear as I pass them. On the bike the sweet spot is right in cruising rev range. 2500-4k... you aren't on a motorcycle. You are on a red-eyed flame-breathing thoroughbred. The thump of the motor is the sound of its hooves beating the ground into dust.
