Default Nightster - Slip On Question
A buddy of mine has an 07 Nightster and is wanting to put V&H Slipon mufflers on for the sound. Not really concerned about the obtaining increased performance.

How are the Sporties running when only the slipons are put on? Tend to run hot?

Thanks for the info guys, I will pass on what I learn from your experiences.

My wife has 'em and likes 'em. Knows they help keep her heard by close cagers. The sporty always runs on the hot side.

I didn't notice mine running any hotter when I ran it with the Cycle Shacks before getting the Big Sucker.
