Default RE: no mufflers

I do believe if you completly take off your mufflers it will void some portions of your engine warranty? the bigger question is
why you would want to do that the bike will lose all kinds of power (tourqe and horsepower) plus your map for the fuel injection
will be wrong. spend the money and buy some new slipons and keep your warranty and the bike running good.

when changing slipons, for sh*t and giggles, i fired it up with no mufflers. never heard a harley sound so bad.
sounded like a worn out lawnmower with a rotted muffler. i wouldn't have ran it that way because i like performance, was just curious.

I took mine for a quick ride without mufflers. Sounds horrible! Not to mention the popping and blue flames dancing at my feet.
