Maybe I am dumb (well more than maybe) but I have no idea what you mean by rap rap sound.

If you're looking for that good 'ol fashion harley sound, change the cams, get loud exhaust, and put in some dirty old spark plugs or something to make it run rough....

My '99 FXDX had the sound you seek, but it had headwork, changed out the carb, cams, 95" kit, SE ignition and 2-1 performance exhaust. It wasn't cheap...

+1 on that !!! My wife's inj'd 03 idles like an air compressor.
Even my carb'd 00 which has the factory single fire ign doesn't have the horse gallop idle both of my Shovelheads had.
It does have a slight lope though.
