I want a little more sound than the stock mufflers that came with the bike. What are some good slip on mufflers for the 2016 Road Glide Special? What are your thoughts on Cobra 909 twins or Vance and Hines twin slash slip on mufflers??

 

Whatever sounds good to you. Head out to a dealer or a bike night and listen to different bikes.....Pick the one you like the best.

 

I second that ^^^^

 

Guessing this is new to you, fyi ALL the touring models are the same except for plastic, speakers and badges.


So what fits on one variant of the touring models, will likely fit another...like mufflers

as above, go hear some bikes at a dealer bbq, bike night etc.

on 2010+ models the catalytic convertor in the header has a huge effect on sound- more or equal to the effect of the muffler.

as you get into this you may decide to get a header without a cat, either aftermarket or modified.
and high flow air cleaner and tuning compensation...what we call a "stage 1"

RC Components....you asked.

 

This is probably one of the most popular topics on the forum. There are so many choices for touring mufflers and everyone has their opinion on what's best. Good luck.

 

Rush SB2's

 

SE Street Cannons. I had a set of SE's for my Wide Glide and they were horrible, but these are gems for the Touring model.

 

Decat your header pipe before spending $ on slipons and then decide.

 

Decat seems to be a good first step if you are not going to the expense of a full exhaust. Exhaust looks the same but will be louder. If you want to change appearance then get the aftermarket muffler style you like. This will prob be louder than OEM. Decat and new mufflers can get the bike much louder than stock. To get the sound/style you want often takes multiple tries. Plan on spending more money than you first thought. Maybe the first try will make you happy. Maybe not.
