I have some that came on the springer, I just bought. I'll let you know how they are. After I get it back together. Maybe two weeks, though. I'm waiting on parts.

Forgive the noob question. Are these the slip-ons that HD sells for the Softails?

I have them on my 2008 Heritage.

Much better sound than stock, but not loud enough to offend my neighbors.
They sound real nice when pulling a hill and using more throttle.
Mufflers are a very subjective thing. I like the sound of louder pipes at idle, but do not want to ride all day with loud pipes blasting in my ear.

If you can attend an event at the dealership when folks are heading out for a ride. Walk around and find a Heritage with the pipes and ask the owner to start if for you. Almost everybody is happy to do this.

Video recording will not help you decide.

Good luck,

Balloo

Yes they are. Screaming Eagle is a Harley product.

When I heard the SE's back in 07, for me they were too quiet.. Just barely louder than stock (about 2 Db's is what I've read). The older SE's muff's was a looot louder..


I ended up with some Rush 2'' baffles.. 8 yrs now and I still have them on the bike..
