All my buddies who ride swear by Cobra pipes. I do think they look quality and sound good. However, Vance and Hines pipes are a lot cheaper. I am under the impression V&H makes quality stuff as well. Why the price huge price difference? I like a deep non raspy or insanely loud sound. I assume I should be looking for full length pipes and not shorties, right? Very new to the cruiser world, so all thoughts, experiences and opinions welcomed!!!

Based on VT1100T owners, the V&H dual baggers are pretty loud. Many owners that have installed V&H have switched back to the stockers or gone to Cobras despite really liking the tone of the V&H. Though the V&H are nowhere near as loud as drag pipes, for all day riding they can get wearisome.
Can't speak to the price difference. Check to see if one or the other is not a complete kit or if the Cobras are dual-walled pipes. Most stock pipes on cruisers are dual wall to prevent the chrome from blue-ing so quickly.
