Default Slip-on suggestions for 04 Fatboy

Just picked up an 04 Fatboy a few days ago. Thanks to all who gave suggestions along the way in helping me find the right bike. Just need some new pipes and was looking at slip ons. Heard the Rush slip ons sounded great but cannot find any that fit an 04. Any suggestions?

Why dont you call Rush just to see. Neither Rush, Khrome Werks or Cycle Shack list them for 2004 in their online catalogs. But it would seem strange if they don't make them.

Have a look at Vance and Hines 3" twin slash slip-ons. They have a nice sound. I had them on my 07 Street Bob. Nice Pipes.

I bought Cycle shacks for the GF's Heritage and they sound great and are reasonably priced.

I have the 3" V &H slash cut slip ons and they sound great. I was really surprised at how good they sound. Nice deep rumble at adle. Loud when you open it up.

And they get the pipes lower on the bike - Look better and no passenger peg between the pipes. Always thought that was a goofy setup.

If you want to keep a stock look check American Custom Exhaust. I have their mid baffle slip on's and love 'em. Got a deal on some blems too...can't see any defect at all! They are a vendor on this site...
