Screw it put them on and try it! Otherwise you'll never know. Make sure you make a video of what they sound like so if you don't like them you can sell them. I'm sure someone will buy them here on this forum!!

depending on the baffle size of your slipons, they probably won't be louder. They will sound better though. I think the long shots sound beautiful. I had rush slipons, nice tone, not as nice as the long shots.

I found sideshots at american classic motors on ebay for the Dyna for $300, but I think it was for up to 05 only...

Get them on then worry about the sound once you have heard them. I took mine to Home Depot on Sunday and my wife heard me climbing the hill to get to our place. To put that into perspective it's about two miles away and I am basically riding towards the house. These make plenty of noise.
