Default Harley Night Stick Mufflers

The local Harley shop service manager recommended these as a good performance boost for the $. Anyone have these? Do you have any data on what the performance change is?

thanks!

When I bought my 2010 SG I had the 103cu 255 cams kit put on. I keep't the stock 2n1 head pipe and put on the Nighstick. Sound'd like total crap. I mean horrible. Till I took out that disc cover on end. Still never was happy with it. Went with V&H Power Duals V&H slip ons and SE Pro Tuner. Been happy since.

are they 'on sale' now. I once thought about it and the HD parts guy talked me out of the idea.

he told me that most were not happy, then we went out and he listened to my stock muffler (without cat) and said it sounds better than the nightstick. that was enough for me.

I hated mine, I tried removing disks but it still sounded like a moped. Ended up giving it away because i couldn't screw someone over by trying to sell the POS. He later changed out for a V&H high output I believe. Save your money for something better!

I just put on the Fatshotz which I believe is the same as the Nightstick except the Fatshotz have an open end cap. Even these do not have much sound to them. While I believe both are made by SuperTrapp, Harley has contracted these to be EPA and noise compliant. The last decent sounding slip-ons Harley sold was the SEII's that came out '05 and earlier.

On the plus side, my Fatshotz work fine with the factory Stage I download, are legal in 50 states, and have no decel popping.

If you are looking for the classic Harley rumble, you aren't going to find it in the HD parts catalog.

Got rid of mine. Replaced it with a D&D Fatcat 2-1.
