How many miles did you have on the old bike? How many mods were done to it? I also don't understand trading a two year old bike for the same model that hasn't had an update of some kind. If it was a new/bigger motor, maybe?


On the "we" topic; my bike is "mine". If my wife rode, maybe it would be "ours".

FWIW I have the 1.75" Rush slipons on my 2011 FXDC and I love 'em. Just loud enough (actually pretty loud when you want them to be) but you can feather the throttle when you're going by the man and not get a second look.

Honestly, you guys crack me up. Did the OP ask for commentary on why he did or should/should not have traded bikes? Of course not-he's just excited and wanted to share.

So why not be part of his joy, or just let it go? Nobody except the OP needs to understand it.

People are different, ya know?

I hope you love your new super glide custom as much as I love my newish streetbob. Awesome bikes (do get rid of the stock pipes with the catalysts in them bike runs way better).

I had a set of Vance & Hines Twin Slash Slip-ons on my FXDC and I liked them fine. They actually were not loud at all when cruising on the highway (which I do alot) and a good rumble at idle. Also had the standard HD Stage I AC kit and a Fuel Pak. Some exhaust popping with this set up, but nothing I could not live with. Also like the Twin Slash because they are a lot less common to see on the Dyna's.
