Took bike out for 160 miles today, runs real nice, pulls noticeably stronger on freeway 4th and 5th gear. It's louder than the Street Cannons but idle is quiet and no annoying drone on freeway but sound note changes with RPM used to cruise. Noticeable decel Jake Brake sound but no pop or back fire. Sounds awesome under full acceleration. Didn't do any fine tuning to the Fuel Moto map on the Power Vision yet so maybe will improve from here.
The Low Rider is quite a light bike already, don't think my bike needs a "torque" cam, maybe something like the S&S 475 will work well here.
If you are just replacing mufflers and not messing with the intake, no tune is needed. Bike runs fine.
Not mine. It ran super rich when I installed Cobra NH slip ons. You could actually smell the gas. The cats are in the rear pipes not the headers and the Cobras are pretty wide open. I needed to put in a new air cleaner and tuner.
The cats are in the headers only on the touring bikes. The Softails have them in the rear pipes.

I run Cobra El Diablo 2 into 1, SS stealth AC (replaced KN) and power vision with a stage 1 FM tune on my 2019 low rider. Runs and sounds great. IMO, HD runs new bikes so lean from factory, I dont change anything without a fuel tune. I have had great experiences with FM and PV.

Me too!
Was looking at the Cobra exhaust, just didn't see a lot about it or sound clips. I just installed my Stage I with PV tuner, going out tomorrow for some auto tuning (weather permitting), so far runs good.

You probably aren't actually running rich. Opening up exhausts or intake without altering the tune generally would cause a leaner rather then a richer condition. However every internal combustion engine will exhaust unburnt fuel. By changing to slip ons without cats, you're now smelling it. Even with the bike possibly running lean.
