Well, I guess my first question would be why...but to each either own.
Your talking about two different kinds of engines. Which naturally make two different kinds of exhaust notes. Like how a four cylinder sounds different than a v8 which sounds different from a disel, ect.
If i had to take a stab at how to make a sport bike sound like a harley you would want to remove the canister totally and add a glass pack in its place.
Of corse you couldn't pull up to any parking lot with out being laughed at like its fifth grade and you forgot to wear pants to the big test, but whatever.

It doesnt matter what kind of exhaust you have... they will NEVER sound the same.

lol... i like the harley sound better than that riceburner noise. but im not talking about making it sound exactly the same, just talking about adding some bass, a deeper sound than that buzzing noise.

Well, you see, my friend. Harleys are timed so that the engine fires all at once. Sportbikes, are NOT.
I think you mean that you don't want your bike to sound like a can of constipated bumble bees after eating a gallon of chili... I personally think that Two Bros. has a nice, rich sounding exhaust in comparison to some others. Run a search for the 2 bros. website, and you can hear actual sound clips of the exhaust on different bikes...

You still will not get the same sound. Theres more to it then exhaust and cylinders.

i never said it will make the same sound, but he said "I like the harley sound better than that riceburner noise. but im not talking about making it sound exactly the same, just talking about adding some bass, a deeper sound than that buzzing noise"..
so most V-twin will satisfy his need.

I always thought the whail of a finely tuned 4-banger sounded cool myself, but then again, a Ducati 999 is awesome also. I think the sweetest sounding bike I ever heard was a CBX with a Kerker 6-into-1.

A Honda Super Hawk passed me on the highway the other day. Man, it sounded sweet too.
