Default S.E. exhaust on F.B. Lo?

Those of you that have the Fat Boy Lo, have you installed the Black Screaming Eagle Slip-on pipes? If you have, how do the sound? I've been searching for an audio/video clip of them and have failed to find one. I'm wondering if they are worth the money and how they sound? Thanks for any replies.

A tad louder seems to be the most common answer to this question. I was going to get those for the wife's Deluxe, mainly because she wanted something legal. Dealer parts guy talked me out of it, said she'd barely notice the difference. He suggested Rush 1.75s. I told the wife she's going to be an outlaw now.

anything from h.d is going to be epa compliant as far as noise and flow are concerned. do yourself a favor and look into rush or some other aftermarket slip-on. youll be much happier with the sound and performance.

Go with Rush. I've got the SE's. At 6000 miles, they're a bit louder than they were new, but still not much different than stock.

I have the Rush slip-ons on my '07 Heritage. I like the sound. I pulled the baffles and ran straight 4 a while. Then added Big City Thunder Monster baffles. I have since pulled the BCT baffle and went back to the Rush baffles. I have more torque with Rush than I did with the BCT's. The tone is good and they are loud enough with added power. Best slip-on in my opinion.
