Default Stock mufflers

I'm thinking about putting the stock fishtail type mufflers back on my 95 Heritage Classic. The slip ons on there now are just way too loud. Will this affect power or mpg? Will the stock ones be TOO quiet?

If you have fishtail mufflers for that bike they weren't stock.
As for too loud or too quiet you'll just have to try them and find out.

They are not stock. I have them on mine with the baffle wrap removed and they are plenty loud but not obnoxious . I had a little more power with the more restrictive Samson mufflers I use to have on it.

I have Kirker fishtails on my bike. Louder than stock but not annoying. Kind of a different sound too. In a good way. Todd
