I had se ii on my 07 heritage.My friends 650 yamaha was louder than my bike.Got rid of them and put v&h true duals with quiet baffles and love the sound .
It sounds like there is one confusing point about the SE slip-on's and that is Harley has had to continue to quiet them down over the years to meet EPA standards. I don't think SE slip-on's are junk. The original SEI were the loudest, the SEII's produced up to '06 were a "little" quieter but still have a nice growl to them. The new SE's as of '07 are definitely even more quiet as their predecessors and are not much louder then stock Harley mufflers. Personally, if I had an '07 or '08 bike, I would not use the new SE slip-on's, but the SEI or SEII sounds fine and as others have said, if you're looking for a low cost solution to a free flow and louder exhaust, Rush slip-on's are good choice. For me, if I could to do it over again, I'd bite the bullet and buy a new entire exhaust system, V&H, Samson, Porker, Rinehart, Cobra.
I have SEII's on my '04 FB. Personally I like them, both the sound and the look.To each his own.I would go with what your dealer says. They changed fm the TC88 to the 96's in '06, so I wouldn't be surprised if the SE's you're looking at wouldn't fit.
