Default ?

I am looking at getting some highway mounts but i dont know if i should go with the bar or just use the dyna adjustable mounts. My dealer told me they would work on my nightster so I am thinking about that. I dont like the sportster mounts that come up behind the exhaust just doesnt look right. I also want to know is there baffles in the exhaust that i can just remove cause as you know it is not loud when it comes from the dealer I dont really wanna get new pipes yet since they are so damn expensive and money is tight at the moment. Any sugggestions would be appreciated.

Not sure on the bars. Never liked them so I haven't looked into them. The baffles can be removed, but you will need to have your EFI remapped because of your O2 sensors.

I bought a set of adjustable highwayones myself. Haven't put them on yet, but a lot of these guys say they work quite well.

if you are only taking the baffles out you WILL NOT have to have it remapped.
You may loose a little bit of low down grunt due to the lesser amount of back pressure is all.

I have the multifit highway pegs which clamp on to my engine guard and they work fine for me, i mounted them on the outside of the guard and they allow me to stretch out and get comfy out on the highway.
