Slip on questions?

What slip ons can you get without having to tune?
I would like them in the black! I am thinking about the screaming eagles slip ons with the black cover!

If you're just doing exhaust you wont need to tune it. Once you add a hi-flow air cleaner you would need to get a tuner.

What Sporty105 said. The SE slip-ons are a bit louder than stock, with a deeper sound.

I have the black Screamin' Eagle slip ons and they're awesome! No tune needed.

I have SE II slip on pipes on my 1200 Custom and it is so loud, it sets off every single car in the neighborhood and every parked car as I roll by. No exceptions. It's louder than my 4 cylinder race bikes.

Any slip ons can be added without tuning. But if you also change the A/C , then you will need to tune. But don't resist it, tuning will open your bike up and it will be so much more responsive that you'll kick yourself for not doing it sooner.

If your just going to do slip on's then you will not need a tune, but like was said once you step up to a high flow AC then a tune will be needed. I alway say go with a nice set of pipes instead of slip on's since you will get a much better look and alot of times a better sound.
