S&S Cycle Slash Cut Slip Ons
 
Greetings. I'm new to the forum and a new owner of a '19 Street Bob. Look forward to sharing ideas as I build my new Harley. First priority, slip ons.

I'm intrigued by the S&S Clash Cuts since they are sound and CARB compliant in California. I live near beach cities who are cracking down on exhaust so I wan't good sound but something compliant to avoid the hassle. I can't find much online about these pipes and haven't seen any on the road. Anyone have experience with them?

I have the same mufflers made to fit a Heritage. They sound and run great. Not too loud like some are. They are basically a straight through pipe with a high flow catalytic converter inside. They run great. My bike with the HD torque cam makes good power and torque.

Here's a pic looking in at the cat-converter. If you point it at a light you can see through it.

. No DB redusers?

The db reducer is simply a straight piece of pipe that reduces the outlet diameter of the muffler. My bike was tuned with them in place and I have never taken them out. It is plenty loud enough for me. I believe you will get more noise and less performance with them out.

Okay but are you running the DB reducers in your mufflers?

As I said in my last post: " My bike was tuned with them (dB reducers) in place and I have never taken them out."

I have them on my 19 Deluxe. I did get the non catted version and removed the db killer. You can click on the vid on my sig for how they sound tuned with PV from Fuelmoto.

Thanks for the replies. I ordered the CA compliant pipes today. Hope to have them on this weekend!

They look great! Very sharp looking ride.

Installed the slip ons and love them! Decibel reducers in, slip ons only... no air cleaner or tune. They are perfect for me. Nice rumble but not obnoxiously loud.

Spot on suggestion. I used the Vance & Hines 3" Slash Slip-ons and put in their version of the dB reducer called the "Quiet Babble" Worked perfect, and a benefit was improved performance (torque and throttle control) on the low end.

Be advised that no matter what you do, there are cranks who will report you to the police as well as police officers looking to make quota. The police officer who came to talk with me after a complaint was filed gave me a good piece of advice. I purchased the "pro" level dB measurement app for my iPhone (cost less than $20) and can show any enforcement official the dB level of my bike and its compliance with local noise ordinance(s).

Hi!
I'm thinking about putting these exhaust for my new FXBB. I understand that these are the "Slash Cut 50 State Legal Slip-Ons" (high flow catalytic + removable DB killers).

There is another model, "Slash Cut EC Slip-Ons for 2018 M8 SoftailŽ" that is valid (legal) for Europe, according to Euro4

Does anyone have them?
