Hi Dudes,
&nbsp\\;
Am wondering if I only for now want my bike(07 bob)&nbsp\\;a little louder than stock, can I just add slip ons without the stage 1 upgrade pkg.&nbsp\\; Prefer not cost right now but would like a little more rumble!&nbsp\\; thanks to all

 

You can add slip ons without a stage one.....Ive had no problems at all.&nbsp\\; Also if you dont want to spend the money for slipons but want more sound.....just drill out the baffles on your stock pipes.

 

I've got Vance &amp\\; Hines Straight Shot slipons and added the "quiet" baffles to get rid of the rasp (more rumble) and to provide a bit more back pressure for mid range torque.&nbsp\\; No stage 1 but recently added the XiED fuel enrichment devices from Nightrider.com.&nbsp\\; That mod is a very well spent $100.

 

Yes you can add Rush 2.0 or smaller baffles or Older SEII baffles (bought from ebay) without changing ECM! I do not know for sure about other brands..I am sure someone else will..&nbsp\\; Just don't change the stock air flow and you will be fine! I have 5000 mile on mine with rush 2.0, rush 1.75 and now older SEII with zero lean problem!! As the techs on here will tell you it is a closed loop system and the stock EFI will work out the correct fuel mixture as long as you don't change the air intake!!

 

I changed out the stock pipes with the Screaming Eagle Street Performance Slip-ons and got a deeper rumble and louder "BUT NOT TOO LOUD" sound with no changes or adjustments needed at allthey are the Hi-Flow so a little more Umph as well...I got from the dealer so paid too much as usual $229+install...but you can pickup as previously mentioned on Ebay for much less....FYI, enjoy

 

I put Rush slip ons with the 2 inch baffles and LOVE em.&nbsp\\; Real deep.&nbsp\\; Loud when you get on the gas, but not loud when cruising.&nbsp\\; Highly reccomend them.&nbsp\\; Haven't done stage 1 or any other engine upgrades yet and no issues.

Streetbobby or anyone esle.&nbsp\\; Is it a tough task&nbsp\\;to drill a hole in the baffles?&nbsp\\; That might be the most cost effective right now!

I just punched mine out with a long 1/4" punch.&nbsp\\; Put three holes connected. sort of a triangle within the circle.&nbsp\\; Allows for some back presure and alot of sound.&nbsp\\; Added a tuning bolt at the end of the pipes to take some of the harshness out. No tuning issues.

 

dbcooper....I used a 1" hole saw and a 12" drill bit extension (bought both @Home Depo)&nbsp\\; and a cordless drill.&nbsp\\; It was easy. I just ran the bit down the muffler and drilled through.&nbsp\\; The piece you drill out is about as thick as an quarter.&nbsp\\; Thats it.&nbsp\\; Took me about 5 min.&nbsp\\; Its not as loud as aftermarket but wayyyy better than stock.
