Louder with Mufflers Only
I just got my wife a new 883L. My question is: Is there a set of slip on's that will give here more of a rumble without changing the air cleaner and re-jetting. I can do the rejetting and stage 1 myself, just want to explore all avenues.

RE: Louder with Mufflers Only
You can usually add Cycle Shack Slip-ons or SE II Slip-ons without the need to swap the air cleaner or change jets. What you'll get is more of the Harley sound, but the performance increase will come only when you change the AC and re-jet in conjunction with the free-flow slip-ons.

RE: Louder with Mufflers Only
When I changed my '99 to the cycle shack slip-ons, it started running on the lean side. Not super lean, but lean enough that I was concerned about making the trips I make when the weather really heats up this summer, so I went ahead and did the carb mods. Better safe than sorry I figured.
I guess each bike is different, but I would definetly read the plugs and monitor what the mixture is doing if you just change the mufflers.

I put a set of SEII of the wifes 06 883L. I left the stock A/C on. Made a world of difference sound wise. It actually sounds like a Harley now. I checked the plugs after 200 miles and they were still tan so no jetting or adjustments required for me.
