Default Just bought a 2011 FLHX and need muffler advice.

I just picked up a 2011 Street Glide last week and the stock pipes are driving me nuts! My own personal "exhaust" can make more noise after a bowl of chili than the bike's oem pipes!

I have a pair of Rineharts on my '03 Road King and really like the sound, but afraid they would be too loud too hear the tunes on the Street Glide?

Does anyone have a suggestion for a pair of slip-ons that won't break the bank? Would really like to keep the exhaust budget under $300 and have been desperate enough to shop eBay for some "no name" pipes!

If you want a nice sound put on bubs true duals.

I'm in the same wagon as you, bone stock '13 SG that needs some sound. I'd like to try the FuelMoto 4" Jackpots in the slash up and that's my intention. But now, I'm thinking of doing the air cleaner mods and ordering the FM Micro Tuner..... It never stops.

Maybe Jamie will see this and send me some for product testing....

I have RC components on mine. They have a low rumble, not too loud until you roll on the throttle heavy. I would put them on my next bike as well. Been happy with them.

How do are you liking the RCX true duals headers? I've been looking at these myself as well as the V&H dresser duals. Had my stock header gutted about a month ago but still doesn't have the grunt that I know the RCX slip ons should have.

I have been very happy with my exhaust set up. The sound at low throttle and hard throttle, they turn heads when you want them too. I have no complaints with power. I really like the sound during a hard deceleration. They have a low rumble with a nice heavy sound when you roll on the throttle. I would buy the set up again without question

There's been several sets of slip ons in the classified section over the past couple weeks. Read deep, some may still be available.

I'm fond of my Jackpot set up, and if your exhaust gets too loud you can always upgrade your tunes!
