Small lobe cams combined with hi-flowing heads = EPA approved noise levels.
You can get the sound you want but it won't be from a SE stage 4. I have enough of these bikes around me everyday with different combinations to know that just a header and slip-ons is not going to give you the thump everyone desires.
I went as far as to remove my baffles from my slip-ons and posted a vid here, Others followed suit. It's much better than before but still not to my liking.

I'm about to add a camshaft next week, so Ill post up a vid of the before and after sound.
Can't wait to hear your cam upgrade. I haven't given up on a better sound yet. lol I'm not totally unhappy with my stage 1/slip on combo, but idle sound sucks!

The exhaust is exactly the same, however we are now offering it with HTC ceramic coating. The exhaust system surface temps are cooler and the finish is beautiful.

Very good increases in Hp/Tq (there are dyno charts on our website), exhaust & engine temps are lowered, and it also increases sound noticeably.

that ceramic coating sounds like the way to go..our Service Manager shared some experiences in having it done with us and swears by it

Any sound clips of your new exhaust? I'll definitely be in the market for new head pipes after the new year.

FM header is a great performer. I just see people always dumbfounded when the bike is barely louder than it was stock.

That sounds really nice. Yesterday I rode with a friend that has a new '18 SG CVO. He even has V&H slip-on's and it still sounds so quiet. I am amazed at what the Stage II, header and 4.5" slip-on's did to the sound and performance of my bike.

[QUOTE=fuelmoto;16827207]For those interested we got enough requests so we now offer our Jackpot M8 2/1/2 head pipe with optional HTC ceramic inner/outer coating. Here is an image of the pipe without the heat shields installed.

I wish you guys did this from the onset...wasn't an option when I bought mine from you. That ceramic coating is beautiful.
