Default Screamin Eagle pipes on Rocker C

Just wanted to share my experience on a simple upgrade from stock that cost me $205.00 from KutterHD through Ebay that you can do yourself in half an hour.

Sound is a little louder but a lot deeper. Sounds like a pounding heartbeat.
IMHO this is a great interim step to better sound until I can afford to do the whole stage one upgrade.

Some pics:

I should have done something like that. My Big Radius pipes are a tad too loud for my neighborhood. I feel like a d-bag every time I start it up.

each to there own. I like the rush 2" on mine and they are quite enough in the am if U stay off the throttle, and are good enough to keep even with mod later.
I installed them after stage 1 and now that I put in cams I still have them because I love the sound and didn't lose very much over others systems and they are better than some in the lower rpm's.
Best part is there are only about 50 bucks more

Loud pipes save lives, screw the neighbors.
