Default Exhaust Slip-ons Advice...

I just got a used 07 Road King Classic with 10,350 bone stock and sounds like a Volkswagon. My question is what slip-ons would be best for nice sound but not obnoxious? where I can't even hear myself think when I'm riding. I had previously had a 06 Sportster 1200C with a stage 1 kit and Vans & Hines slip-ons and when I ride for over two hours I felt like I was going deaf. Should I just leave them alone?

One other question, Is it required to re-jet/remap the fuel injection like the non fuel injection carb which I had on my 06 Sportster?

If you change either air or exhaust np, if you change both you'll need a stage 1 conversion.

I put a set of the Screaming Eagle pipes on my '09 Ultra and love the sound. Much louder and deeper than stock - surprisingly a great sound.

I put them on after I got tired of my V&H basic slip-ons, which aren't all that loud but drone on long rides. I figured that I would just have to deal with the stock type sound but I was pleasantly surprised at just how good a set of these sounded - and they're legal to boot!

I got CFR's on my SG. Nice sound but not stupid "My neighbors hate me" loud.

Yep, just ordered 4" jackpots from Fuel Moto, should be here Thursday. Read nothing but good things about the jackpots and priced reasonably too.

You're gonna luv 'em! You'll notice the deeper, slightly louder exhaust note right away; but the best part is that only get better with age.

I have the V&H twin slash rounds and love the sound and quality , but you should go around to some dealers or bike nights some place and listen to different ones for yourself , they will sound different on yours but should be close , it is all personal taste
