Thinking about putting them on my 2019 Tri Glide with their Zombie baffles, a long with a good aftermarket breather.
Anyone use them ?
They're not cheap ($650.00-$700.00) a pair, when compared to Cobra slip ons at $ 450.00.
Overpriced? Over hyped?
Not expecting any significant HP gains.
Just wanting to open up the breathing passages some.
Thanks in advance for the opinions, comments etc.
Or..............if you have a better option, I'm all ears.
I do like a robust exhaust note BTW. And TAB's seem to cover this area fairly well.
Eventually, I want to decat the thing with aftermarket pipes. But I'll really need to save my pennies for that.
K.C.

I have a Tab exhaust and originally got the zombie baffles. The sound was great but got too loud when I built the motor. So I switched to their 2.5" louvered baffles and not only do they sound great as well. but I also picked up some noticeable low end torque.
I helped put some on a buddies bike last year with the zombie baffles. If you look into them they are just a straight piece of 2in pipe all the way through and they are very loud. Remind me of fishtails sound.

For most bikes the 50 cal's are too big, there will not produce as much power as the B.A.M. Sticks with some Thunder Torque Inserts™ installed.
With my cam in my 114 it was too loud for me, for hour after hour of riding, UNTIL I put the 1.75" baffles in with the TTI's.
They have a nice deep sound, and you can see from the dyno chart at the bottom, produce very nice power.
I went from Cobra NH to 50 Cal's and did not notice any difference in percieved performance. Bike is stock. They have the zombie baffles and the tone is deep, but not obnoxious.
I bolted on a pair of 4" BAM Sticks w/ Zombie baffles last Saturday.
The sound isn't bad. Far better than stock exhaust.
I can't tell of any increase in performance.
Next step is a DK Custom 606 air cleaner.

I have the same setup on my RG3 with the exception of the baffles - I went with the 2.5" baffle. I also bought a FP4 tuner and received a map from V&H. The trike runs and sounds good. I'm very happy with the setup.

After 200 or so miles with the exhaust, I am able to tell of a fairly significant uptick in my midrange performance.
Trike isn't nearly as " sluggish" when twisting the throttle at highway speeds ( 75ish )
All in all I'm pleased.
I had them on my 23 heritage 114 for a couple seasons, softail slipons were cheaper than the touring/trikes, think i got them under 400. So they were a temp thing until I found system, didnt like riding a sewing machine lol
I liked them, nice sound idling and under throttle, but the decel noise, sounded more like a big rig than a harley to me. I watch alot of clips online before getting them, but never heard anyone deceling to a stoplight...dont think I wouldve went with them had I.
