They'll cost more from the dealer but they should be willing to install any brand of exhaust you want and add it to the financing. Most dealers have a guy that all he does is help you with accessories. Both after market and factory. Ask your salesman before closing the deal. They love to sell you accessories and the labor to install.

Good luck picking an exhaust

I had Screamin' Eagle mufflers on my '06 RK when I bought it, gutted them and installed Kerker performanc baffles to get some sound. The SE's don't sound better than stock IMO, I could fart louder than they were. Just bought a 2010 Ultra Limited and am going to order Rush mufflers for it. My wife's Deluxe has Rush mufflers, sounds pretty good. My $0.02. Jr.

Matt25,

I have them and I like them. I didnt want extremely loud mufflers though. If you want LOUD as Hell, then I would look elsewhere because imho, these are not going to get you that. When I firts installed them they were just noticibley louder than stock, with a better punch. My SeII's got louder after about 1000 miles and for me they have a really good balance of tone and punch. They are loud enough for me. It is all subjective. Good luck with your choice and congrats on getting your ride.


Here is a shot of them below...

Cheers,

Tom

Dealer service guy talked me out of them for the wife's Deluxe. Said she would barely notice the difference from stock. He said the Rush 1.75s would work fine. I just hope she doesn't think they're too loud.
