Hi everyone,
I just bought a new Super Glide the other week and I'm loving it so far. But I need a new exhaust! Mine is way to quiet. My buddy called me the phantom driver the other day! I've been looking at the Vance and Hines Big shots, but I think they might too loud from some of the reviews I've read. I don't mind loud, but I would like to be able to pull out of the driveway without pissing my neighbors off if I want to. I'm open to pretty much any exhaust though, so if anyone loves or hates theirs, I'm open to any suggestions. I've tried to do a search on relative exhaust threads, but I wasn't very successful. If anyone knows a specific thread that deals with this I would appreciate that as well. One other quick thing-will this affect my warrenty? The dealership I bought the bike from said it wouldn't but that I had to buy it from there, which of course cost a hundred dollars more than if I got it online.

Thanks for any help and suggestions you can throw my way!

I still like the Vance & Hines Big Radius... And they are not as loud as the short shots... but I wish their price was a little better....
I know they list for $650 and about the best price I have found is eBay or direct from Biker Haven for $490.

Biker Haven V&H Big Radius $490

 

Any opinions about the Screaming eagle air cleaner? That seems to be the norm for my bike. Does anyone else have another brand that they like?

Thanks again,

Aaron

 

That's a tough one!! There are so many out there. I prefer the Kuryakyn Hyper Chargers, but you might want to look at a J&P, Dennis Kirk, V-Twin, etc. catalog and see which one fits your taste. Check out the below link to air filters available at Dennis Kirk.

I went with the SEII slip-ons and air cleaner kit. Seems to work well, but mainly it wa a matter of price and convenience. My dealer installed for free before bike was delivered.

 

Replaced the stock H-D staggered duals on my '04 FXD over the weekend, with set of V&H Big Shot Staggered pipes. They were under $450.00 shipped to the door from Direct Parts in Nevada and I'm sorry that I did not change them over sooner. They are a bit on the LOUD side, but not what I would call obnoxiously so. The fit and finish is excellent and it took only a couple of hours to install them.

The only other work that I had done was having a Dynojet kit installed in the stock HD carb, runs strong and sounds great. Good luck with your choice. I'll try to post a few pictures with the V&H pipes today or tomorrow so you can get an idea of what they look like.

 

I got home in time to upload a picture of the new pipes on the bike. Let me know if you have any questions.
